Subject: Re: Entrepreneurship for all
Here is an extract from the link provided by Chris Vidler.
'Enterprise capability is the ability to handle uncertainty and respond
positively to change, to create and implement new ideas and ways of doing
things, to make reasonable risk/reward assessments and act upon them in
one's personal and working life. It can be described as: innovation,
risk-management, a 'can-do' attitude and the drive to make ideas happen'
This can be interpreted widely to have very little to do with Business
Studies narrowly construed as a subject. In my school the intention is to
use this definition to drive forward more independent learning amongst
pupils. This way non-Business subjects have no excuse for sitting on their
hands.
