Working with Schools

We have been pleased to have developed strong links with the education sector. The main areas are:

Record of Achievement Folders

For many years we supplied National Record of Achievement folders to DfES, which were later replaced by Progress files. Some schools then approached us to supply them with Record of Achievement folders.

We print each school’s name and crest on the front cover, and now we supply hundreds of schools.

We have recently added a new environmental Record of Achievement folder, using 93% recycled material. These are available in 6 colours, also printed with the school’s name and crest.

Outstanding School products

Enterprise for Education Original Stationery

This innovative programme provides a real Work Related Learning opportunity for schools and colleges, whereby students of all abilities can develop their enterprise skills. With our support they run a real business selling our original and design led stationery products. Profit that would normally be earned by retailers is thus re-directed to school or college funds, to be used at their discretion.

Products are supplied on a sale or return basis, thus minimising the risk for the school or college to participate. No money has to be paid before schools and colleges receive the money from their sales.

This is not a just a virtual learning experience, but a real and stimulating enterprise programme that motivates students and brings meaningful and ongoing engagement with business.

* Create-your-own

Create-your-own is a patented concept which allows students to use their own design ideas and interests to create a unique product.

* Aroma binders

Gorgeous fruity fragrant folders that exude the aroma ofbubblegum, raspberry and tropical mango!

Common themes running through our school activities are:

* Recycling

Our recycling programme naturally works with schools as well as with businesses. We will take back everything we supply to separate the components and materials and recycle them. We use recycled materials in our products wherever possible.

* Come and see us...

We welcome schools which are providing our Record of Achievement folders to their students, and those participating in our Original Stationery – creating funds for schools programme, to bring groups of students to visit us to see our automated production and recycling activity, and to meet our people.

We will give a short presentation about our business, what makes us different (such as being owned by our employees) and answer questions.

* Partnership

We would love to discuss the possibility of working in partnership with a large company to provide schools and colleges with the maximum benefit from Original Stationery and Record of Achievement. This is intended to be a long-term relationship, within your brand and values marketing programme. To discuss, contact Jonathan Levy jonathanl@bll.co.uk 01322 621553
