Poplar Tree Garden Centre Continue Support of Future Business Magnates Durham
For the second year running, Poplar Tree Garden Centre (with the support of Brambledown) are offering business partnering to a school in the 2010 Future Business Magnates run by Durham County Council. This year, Paul Curry who is Business Development Manager at Brambledown and Poplar Tree Garden Centre attends regular meetings with Durham Federation (a federation between Fyndoune Community College & Durham Community Business College) in preperation for their monthly challenges throughout the year. Each school must develop a business idea and go through the process of devising a product, sourcing finance and marketing and selling their product by proposing a business model. Last year Paul Curry offered Business partnering to Easington Community College as they finished high up the league table.
Future Business Magnates is a fun competition with an important business message and opportunity. Now in its fifth year, the initiative was originally designed for year 8 students from the Durham City area. However, such has been the success of the scheme that schools throughout County Durham are now competing and this year the number of entrants has risen to sixteen.
Launched in 2005 by the late and much loved Sir Bobby Robson, Future Business Magnates continues to assist schools to deliver the enterprise, creativity and key skills set down under the education agenda at local, regional and national levels.
The competition provides an outlet for schools to encourage entrepreneurial attainment and to promote social and economic awareness amongst its students.
