Despite coping with the daily demands of the business, the Rowletts are taking the concept behind Secret Teacher to the next level.
Supported by social enterprise experts, a series of presentations is scheduled for the UKʼs secondary schools, offering the chance for interested budding entrepreneurs to join a programme of intensive 12-week courses which are due to be rolled out over the next three years.
