Enterprise Academy

Enterprise Academy aims to “inspire and challenge” students to think about business using Hull City as a real example that they can relate to and understand.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank our new enterprise partners Rollits Solicitors who will be supporting our Enterprise activites for the next 3 years.

We at the Tigers Sport and Education Trust aim to “inspire and challenge” students to think about business using Hull City as a real example that they can relate to and understand. Our Enterprise Academy offers young supporters the chance to improve their enterprise skills whilst mixing their love of the sport.

Our courses use the football club as a real life case study to improve student's perception of business in a way they can relate to and understand. We offer incentives to encourage successful completion of each course such as free match tickets and visits from Hull City personalities. Football related enterprise challenges are created, which see students working in teams to design and create a new football strip or developing products which the participants have to learn how to market and sell.

We currently offer four different Enterprise courses:

OCR Business and Enterprise Qualification (Entry 3)
OCR Level 2 Certificate in Employability Skills
NCFE Level 1 Award in Exploring Enterprise Skills and Developing Enterprise Skills
NCFE Level 2 Certificate in Developing Enterprise Skills

OCR Business and Enterprise Qualification (Entry 3)

The qualification features a ten module course, approximately ten hours for completion. As students progress through the course they will gain an insight into the various departments within our football club as well as the opportunity to gain an accredited Oxford and Cambridge RSA (OCR) qualification in Business and Enterprise during the academic year. The programme culminates in a celebration and KC Stadium tour, something a lot of these students won’t have the opportunity to do.
