Enterprise Challenges
Enterprise challenges from business professionals
The Future Business delivers innovative and high impact enterprise challenge days for KS3-5 students and inset days for teachers.
Over the years our team of presenters have worked with over 10,000 secondary school students and are passionate about broadening education beyond the classroom. Our presenters are all highly qualified consultants and business professionals who, when not delivering programmes in schools, work with major corporations and educational bodies like Microsoft and the Universities of Reading and Southampton, teaching management and marketing skills.
FOUR great learning experiences.
All our events cover four key learning experiences:
1. Enterprise – our events are designed to teach students practical business skills in line with the Gatsby benchmarks.
2. Confidence and presentation skills – students are given professional training in presentation skills, improving confidence and self-belief are vital elements in making the transition from education into business.
3. Teamwork and creativity – students work together in non-friendship teams. Each task is designed to promote teamwork and draw out a range of new skills, giving every student a chance to shine.
4. Learning by doing – students are treated as business professionals, undertaking a range of challenges to give practical application to their enterprise skills.
Simple to organise
Our events can be organised in three simple steps:
Let us know the event date and the number and year group of the students taking part.
Book the relevant school venue and split the students into non-friendship groups of 8.
On the day, we take care of everything. The Future Business team will arrive in plenty of time to set up. We bring our own materials, will fit around your timetable and can work with a whole year group at a time.
Our goals are to build students’ self-confidence and inspire them to be the enterprising leaders of tomorrow and to deliver hassle-free enterprise events, relieving the pressure on teachers’ time.
We have embedded a few of the Gatsby benchmarks into our enterprise days, including linking curriculum learning with careers, experiences of the workplace and personal guidance. Through adopting these benchmarks, we believe young people will be more prepared for the future ahead.
