PROJECT OVERIVEW

CURRICULUMWhat is enterprise education?…it’s always worth a reminder

‘Enterprise education encourages young people to handle uncertainty and respond positively to change, to create new ideas and ways of doing things, and to take and manage risks. It helps young people develop a ‘can do’ attitude and the drive to make ideas happen, raising their aspirations, improving their achievement in school and developing valuable skills for education and employment.’

Department for Children, Schools and Families, 2009 (defunct)
