  • Motion reference: S6M-14069

That the Parliament congratulates all of the young people who participated in the Social Enterprise Academy; understands that the theme for the 2024 campaign focused on “impact and legacy”, and that schools were awarded for demonstrating outstanding creativity and commitment to social good, significantly impacting their communities; further understands that over 200 schools across Scotland participated, including pupils from Bothwell Park High in Motherwell, who launched a successful school café, and St Aidan’s Primary School pupils, who sold seasonal goods to fund parcels for babies and their families at the nearby Wishaw Maternity Neonatal Unit; notes that the annual awards event provides an exciting opportunity for young people to share their learning, network with other Social Enterprise Schools and swap ideas for future ventures; acknowledges the importance of celebrating and recognising all young people, and thanks them for all their hard work, as well as the teachers and schools that support them.
