Young Enterprise at Balcarras is taken very seriously and we have had a great deal of success over recent years. This extra-curricular activity allows students to form a business and manage this business throughout the year. They will then compete against 3,000 other teams across the UK based on their experiences throughout the year.

The success of the Young Enterprise scheme at Balcarras has been exceptional. As a team we have finished in the top two within Gloucestershire for the past ten years, winning four of the last six county competitions. We have also represented the county at the South West final on no less than four occasions. Due to the popularity of YE, we often run two teams!. Our most successful year was in 2012 when we went on to be UK Champions and our team travelled to Bucharest, Romania to compete against 34 other teams in the European Finals. We came 3^rd in Europe which was an outstanding performance.
