Schools & Sixth Forms

Winner of a British Educational Technology Award (BETT 2008), SimVenture is an engaging and authentic business simulation game containing a wealth of up-to-date information. SimVenture can be fitted alongside all business and enterprise related curricula.

Applications

  • Course content at KS4 and KS5 requires students to study issues relating to small business and new business creation as well as develop enterprise skills and knowledge.

  • SimVenture fits alongside the Enterprise Agenda and allows students to make decisions, deal with consequences, learn from mistakes and work as a team.

  • The new Diplomas (IT and BAF) support vocational learners who develop skills using hands-on resources that link theory with real-world practice. The IT diploma requires the use of a business simulation.

Why purchase?

  • SimVenture engages students and offers a personalised & fun approach to learning. In 2008 Ofsted research highlighted that for many Business Studies can be boring because teachers tend to talk at students rather than offering hands-on learning experiences.

  • Flexible software licensing arrangements makes access to SimVenture simple. The software can be installed on a central server and used on any connected computer.
