Education for Enterprise
The goal of this initiative is to develop students who are enterprising in their core learning areas (such as English/te reo Māori, health and physical education, mathematics, science, social science, technology, and the arts) and in their co-curricular activities.
Education for enterprise adds value to school-based learning as a context and approach to learning, rather than as an additional programme.
At this early stage support for schools is likely to come from Regional Economic Development Agencies and local New Zealand Trade and Enterprise offices.
Those interested in embedding an enterprising culture within their schools should contact Suze Strowger, Senior Adviser of Education for Enterprise, by email suze.strowger@minedu.govt.nz.
