Enterprise in education is an excellent strategy to develop the enterprise and employability skills of our young people. It lies at the centre of curriculum for excellence and promotes a wide range of opportunities, including cross curricular work ,for our children and young people from 3-18 to become successful learners, confident individuals, responsible citizens and effective contributors.

The four main areas of enterprise in education are:

Enterprising learning and teaching
Entrepreneurial learning
Work based vocational learning
Careers education.

Five inter-related themes are built around the main areas: 
Supporting the development of skills for life, skills for work
Engaging employers
Embedding enterprise in the curriculum
Building capacity
​Enhancing our international profile.


​ Enterprising activities will be organised to reflect the age and interests of our pupils. The range of activities could include:  Links and partnerships with businesses, colleges , schools abroad;  Fundraising events organised and run by pupils;  Fairtrade activities;  Joint school and community initiatives; and  Work experience placements and speakers.
