  statutory entitlement except through EIU

  original National Curriculum

  remained moderate by international standards

  supports people who take opportunities and risks

  enterprise education

  people

  employability (enterprise capability, financial
  capability, economic and business understanding)

  for employability and work (including their
  enterprise capability)?

10
How did we get here?

  the knowledge and understanding, skills and
  attributes that young people require to thrive in
  their future working lives.

  Davis employability components

  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

11
How did we get here?

• Enterprise Education A history lesson
• Enterprise education involves Enterprise
  capability supported by
• Financial capability the ability to manage
  one's own finances and to become questioning and
  informed consumers of financial services
• Business and economic understanding the ability
  to understand the business context and make
  informed choices between alternative uses of
  scarce resources
• Effective enterprise learning takes place in an
  environment a school, community or business
  setting where young people are given autonomy
  to tackle relevant problems or issues that
  involve an element of risk and uncertainty about
  final outcomes, as well as reward for their
  successful resolution

Why are we bothering to go anywhere?

• In times of change it is the learners who inherit
  the earth while the learned are beautifully
  equipped to deal with a world that no longer
  exists.
• The illiterate of the 21st century will not be
  those who cannot read and write, but those who
  cannot learn, unlearn, and relearn.
• Alvin Toffler
• He also wrote a book called Future Shock the
  central theme of which is about the impact on
  society of too much change in too short a period
  of time.
