I have organised and led a number of Enterprise Days in two different schools in the most recent students were split into company teams ranging from BAE Systems to Sony. The activities were very practical but integrated the use of ICT in some of the tasks that allowed teams to pick up bonus marks.
Scenario
The Djibouti government after years of civil war and recent discovery of huge gas and oil reserves are ready to spend big to improve the infrasture of the country.
The 11 companies have been invited to discuss customer requirements, negotiate contracts, then produce the items on time and to the required specifications as outlined by the contract.
Successful day
The feedback from students was exceptionally positive with many enterprising skills being developed throughout the day. There was a big focus on feedback, communication, financial capability, risk taking and organisation.
