A learner journey that produces proof

Starz is designed to create visible outputs: plans, pricing, pitches, reflections, and real-world activity. That proof is what makes parents, inspectors and stakeholders trust the impact.

Educator support
Want mentoring/coaching layered in?

Some settings use Starz alone, others add support for learners who need more confidence or structure.

Real classroom-style delivery

From lessons to real stalls — a simple pathway that builds confidence fast

One licence can run Starz across a class, youth group, or alternative provision cohort. Learners complete missions, build evidence, and finish with a mini-showcase or full business fair.

Educators FAQ

Questions teachers ask before they buy

Clear answers for schools, youth groups and alternative provision settings.

1How does the 20-seat licence work?

One licence covers up to 20 learners at a time. You can rotate cohorts across the year, and add extra seats if you need more than 20 running simultaneously.

2Can we use it as weekly lessons or a short project?

Yes. Run it as a weekly programme (steady progress) or a sprint (e.g. 4–6 weeks) ending in a showcase. The lesson plan template keeps delivery consistent either way.

3What do you mean by “accreditation pathway”?

Learners can build evidence as they complete missions and projects, supported by mentoring/coaching if you want it. You can align outcomes to recognised frameworks (e.g. AQA/ASDAN/NCFE/STEM) as appropriate.

4What’s included in the Innovation Hub?

A growing library of supplementary courses and resources that extend the core Starz pathway — useful for enrichment, employability, confidence and money skills.

5Do we need a business fair to get value?

No — you can finish with a classroom showcase. But the “how-to” guide makes it easy to scale to a fair when you’re ready (pricing, stalls, pitches and roles).

6Can you support delivery with mentoring/coaching?

Yes. Mentoring and coaching can support learners with confidence, pitching and progress check-ins — especially helpful for learners who need encouragement or extra structure.
