Julie is an experienced entrepreneur, and has run businesses in Chile and South America for over 10 years.

In the last few months students have launched business plan competitions, run a TedX Youth event, participated in an entrepreneurial film-making competition and enjoyed a number of social enterprise events. External entrepreneurial speakers are also speaking at the school about their experiences (including Karren Brady from The Apprentice), and the highs and lows of being an entrepreneur, and starting businesses. sevenoaksschool.org Take to the Stage The Mead School in Tunbridge Wells, has won top prizes in a national drama competition for the second year running.
