What did they do? Three Norwich schools have received the nationally recognised Excellence in Enterprise Education Award. Pupils and staff from Clare School, Sewell Park College and Woodside Pupil Referral Unit collected their awards from the High Sheriff of Norfolk Charles Barrett.

The ceremony was organised by Go For it! Enterprising Norwich, a city council programme that supports enterprising activity in schools.

Why? Teenagers from the Woodside Centre set up a pizza company, and sold handmade goods at a Christmas fair, while students at Clare School created a Romeo and Juliet book, organised drama productions and prepared staff lunches. Sewell Park pupils have been growing and selling fruit and vegetables from the school allotment and running a stationery business called Doodles.

What do the professionals think? Tim Bacon, development manager at Go For It! Enterprising Norwich, says: "All the schools have shown a clear vision of what enterprise education means for young people and a commitment to enterprise for the future."
