SIFE Student Success

Students In Free Enterprise is a global competition run to encourage university students to create economic opportunity for others while discovering their own potential. Jessica Schneider and Christine Hughes, two first year students here at Keele have put together a project aimed at increasing the financial literacy of secondary school pupils.



Above are Jessica on the left and Christine on the right watching the pupils work on their plans and then the picture on the right shows Jessica helping a group of Sandon High School students work up a business plan as part of the first workshop to be run as part of their project.

The Year 10 pupils in the session thoroughly enjoyed the workshop and Jessica and Christine are now gearing up to roll the project out to more schools in the area.

Sandon High were extremely happy with the workshop, saying that it had enhanced their Enterprise curriculum.
