Skill

Every learner will develop the skills necessary to participate in business activity: entrepreneurship, communication, problem solving, decisions making, and the skills required to work as part of a team. Learners will also know how to interpret quantitative data.

Character

‘Investing in the business of me’: every individual should see themselves as part of the economy. They therefore need to be geared up to make decisions and understand the decisions that affect all. Learners will explore their position in the economy and the business world. They will be intrinsically motivated and have a proactive, creative mind set.

Experience

Students will be able to communicate effectively – business etiquette – regarding presentation of themselves and presentation of their work. They will experience the real world through realistic case studies, work experiences, visits and guest speakers, and discussion of current affairs.

Criticality

Children will think intelligently and critically about the purpose and impact of business on the world and themselves as stakeholders. This will allow learners to see themselves as a part of the business world regardless of their future career goals. This should allow learners to see themselves as potential entrepreneurs, using the skills learnt to solve problems in a business context.
