Enterprise

Enterprise is about initiative and the drive to make things happen. Enterprising people create and implement new ideas and ways of doing things, handle uncertainty and respond positively to change. They have a positive 'can-do' attitude.


This is how Enterprise is defined by the Qualifications & Curriculum Development Agency here.


Enterprise education encourages young people to be innovative, to take and manage risks, and to develop determination and drive. Enterprise education is not about a body of knowledge - it is about developing young people's ability to embrace change positively, show initiative, take responsibility and manage themselves. Developing enterprising and entrepreneurial qualities will benefit young people in their personal and working lives, and the communities in which they live.


In this blog we aim to explore the potential of creative approaches to learning to develop enterprise in young people
