Do I need business experience to run a session?

No. Every kit includes a timed facilitator guide with what to say, what pupils should produce and how long each part takes. Teachers with no business background run these sessions successfully.

Which key stages do the kits cover?

Four age tracks cover KS1 through KS5: Explorers for ages 6-8, Pioneers for 9-11, Innovators for 12-14 and Trailblazers for 15-18. Each has its own slides, guide and student materials.

How do the kits map to the curriculum?

Each kit states its links to PSHE and RSHE, citizenship, maths and D&T, plus GCSE Business where relevant, and the Gatsby benchmarks it evidences - so it can be justified on a scheme of work or a careers plan.

Can we run this as a whole-school enterprise day?

Yes. The enterprise day kit is built for off-timetable delivery with multiple groups running in parallel, including a trade stand and a pitch final. We also deliver bespoke days in person - see partner options.

Is it suitable for mixed-ability and SEND groups?

Yes. Activities are visual and paired by default, with low-literacy routes through every task and extension prompts for early finishers. Nothing depends on written fluency.

Why it matters

The case for putting enterprise on the timetable

Three pressures that an enterprise session answers at the same time.

1 in 8

Young people are NEET

The highest level in a decade. The Milburn review put employability and enterprise skills at the heart of the response, which lands squarely on schools and youth settings.

The NEET crisis explained

Gatsby 2, 4, 5, 6

Benchmarks you already have to evidence

Careers information, linking curriculum to careers, employer encounters and experiences of workplaces - an enterprise session evidences several at once.

What is enterprise education?

Age 6

Aspiration narrows early

Children rule things out long before options evenings. Seeing real founders who look like them is one of the few interventions that measurably widens the field again.
