Designed to aid young people’s transition from education into independent living and employment, the Team Programme develops confidence and life skills through working as a team to set up and run an enterprise.
Designed by young people with additional support needs, for young people with additional support needs, students interact with adults and grow in confidence as they run their own student company. They make all the decisions about their enterprise, from deciding on the name and product to selling to the public with pop up shops.
The students gain self-awareness to recognise personal strengths, preferences, areas for personal development and what can be offered to future employers.
It is recommended that the programme covers 150 notional learning hours over the course of one academic year.
Team Programme has an additional optional qualification which is credit rated in Scotland at SCQF Level 3 worth 15 credit points. Students work towards completing a portfolio of evidence documenting the journey of developing their enterprise, and their personal skills development. This qualification is marked by the main educator supporting the programme at school and externally verified by Young Enterprise Scotland and accredited by Glasgow Kelvin College.
