Lessons to be learnt

Bukky Olaleye — Tue, 01 Nov 2011 08:48:16 +0000

Here is an article from Inc about how countries like New Zealand are using a one stop shop approach to encourage Entrepreneurship. Perhaps as we look forward to the Global Entrepreneurship Week this month, we too could learn some lessons.

Have you signed up yet?

We have run several successful events during the Global Entrepreneurship Week for children, but adults also! This year, we are working with partners to create ‘high impact events’ that inspire people to consider business or self employment as a viable ‘career’ choice.

The events run in different countries and impact a tremendous amount of people. Here are some figures from the website:

Since its inception, Global Entrepreneurship Week has spread to 115 countries, with nearly 24,000 organisations planning more than 37,000 activities. As part of Global Entrepreneurship Week 2010 in the UK, over 207,200 people attended 2,577 events, run by 983 organisations.

If you are interested in us running some events in your schools, contact us. We would love to hear from you.

Global Entrepreneurship Week!

Ofsted Enterprise Report

Bukky Olaleye — Thu, 23 Jun 2011 14:09:33 +0000

We are pleased to see this report from Ofsted, which starts by saying

“Economics, business and enterprise education is about equipping children and young people with the knowledge, skills and understanding to help them make sense of the complex and dynamic economic, business and financial environment in which they live. It should help them leave school well-informed and well-prepared to function as consumers, employees and potential employers”

However more needs to be done to develop economic and business understanding of young people. Such principles when introduced in an age related way from primary school lays the foundation for them to become well-prepared adults.
