Shares 4 Schools

A investment competition aimed at Year 12 students who want to take a risk. It starts in October 2009 and requires £1500 to actually invest in the stock market. I entered this year and the competition ended in June 2009. Schools are well supported with advice from the company and students are motivated by actually investing for real. Sponsorships of £750 are available. My school finished in 32nd place out of 50 teams entered and after costs were added made £120. To find out more and register go to WWW.shares4schools.com
