I have permission to post - its not my idea and I'm not directly involved but I do know some of the people who are.
They've had an idea that in my opinion is actually a genuinely good idea so that schools can sell creations the kids make and use that money to ease budget problems, invest in better equipment or even just to treat the kids.
Their aim is to basically challenge the way we think about learning and to encourage/inspire creativity, innovation and also teach them about money and business too.
If you do think it could be a good idea, please consider voting to lend them your support - the finalists will pitch their idea to Sir Richard Branson himself and will be in with a chance of winning funding to enable their vision to be implemented.
Bonus is that voters are also in with a chance to win £10,000 just by voting
You can vote for them here: virginmediabusiness.co.uk/pitch-to-rich/new-things/the-big-70-ltd
And you can also view their original pitch video (its been changed by virgin on their site to snippets of an interview they did with one of the founders) here: https:// youtu.be/8f_CxLx_DdY
Thanks guys and hopefully one of us wins the £10,000!
