YOUNG entrepreneurs at Great Marlow School put their bead bracelets on show last month when they took part in the Marlow Late Night Shopping Evening.

The bracelets made from small glass beads, which sold for 99p each, were produced by the 12 members of Spectrum, this year's Young Enterprise company at the school. They also sold them at the Holy Trinity craft fair.

The 15-year olds, in Year 10, are now working on their second product for the year, T-shirts to order with photographs of friends or family transferred on to them.

"They are going great guns," said Debbie Leach, link teacher at Great Marlow School. "They have done a lot of research in the school and on the internet."

She said a number of the pupils were doing Art at GCSE and were into photography, which gave them the idea for the T-shirts.

Young Enterprise is a national charity which runs business and enterprise education programmes in schools "to inspire and equip young people to learn and succeed through enterprise."

Through the programme the student entrepreneurs set up and run their own company during the course of one academic year with the support of link teachers and advisers from the world of business.

The 20 companies at schools in the High Wycombe Young Enterprise area will set out their wares on March 9 at the 25th Annual Trade Fair.
