Aspiro Young Entrepreneurs Academy

Your child has the
next big idea.

Real business skills for ages 9 to 13, taught through making things that matter to them, with AI as the tool they learn to use.

The idea

A founders’ course built for ages 9 to 13.

The same skills a real founder learns. Spotting a problem worth solving, testing an idea, putting a price on it, standing up and pitching it. Adapted for their age and taught through making.

AI is the tool they use along the way, never a lesson they sit through.

Why now

The world they’ll work in doesn’t exist yet.

Jobs are changing faster than any curriculum can keep up. The skill that lasts is knowing how to spot a problem, think for yourself, and act on it. That skill can be taught at nine.

The thread

The first chapter of a longer story.

What they build at YEA follows them. One profile, growing with them from their first stall to their first real decision.

The curriculum

What they’ll learn.

01

Spotting problems worth solving

Every business starts with someone noticing something. So does every module.

02

Money and pricing

What things cost, what they're worth, and why the difference matters.

03

The business model, child-sized

Who is it for, what does it do, why would they pay. On one page.

04

Marketing and storytelling

How to make someone care about your idea in thirty seconds.

05

Pitching and public speaking

Standing up in front of a room and being heard. It ends in a real pitch.

06

Confidence and self-belief

The quiet outcome underneath all the others, and the one parents notice first.

How it works

Real sessions. A real pitch. A real audience.

  • Delivered in schools

    Six to eight sessions a term, run in class, ending in a pitch evening for parents.

  • A profile that follows them

    The work they do at YEA becomes the start of their Aspiro Careers profile at secondary school.

  • Safeguarding designed in

    Built for this age group from day one, with parents in the room and teachers in control.
