The EIA

How do EiA work with schools and colleges?

EiA will create an enterprise programme to motivate and engage your students and meet their particular needs, whether it be an intensive one-day workshop or an in-depth project.

Programmes cater for different learning styles, age-ranges and abilities to enable all participants to develop their knowledge and skills. EiA facilitators understand how to engage young people of all abilities, ranging from pupils with learning needs to pupils identified as ‘gifted and talented’.

EiA can also run workshops for teachers wishing to develop their knowledge and skills in order to deliver enterprise education.

Ofsted report that pupils enjoy and are motivated by enterprise learning as it raises aspirations and develops valuable skills for both higher education and employment. Enterprise opportunities can challenge students across the whole age and ability range, enhance a range of curriculum subjects and drive up standards as part of the school improvement agenda. Enterprise education is a vital part of work-related learning - statutory provision at key stage 4.

EiA programmes deliver 3 of the 5 key outcomes of Every Child Matters - Enjoy and achieve; Economic well-being and Make a Positive contribution.

A selection of our one day programmes:

  1. Enterprise –Students will gain insight and practical skills relating to the business world. Their knowledge is tested in an exciting high energy afternoon trading game when they have to run their own business.
  2. Raising your Game - designed to motivate students to be self starters, and raise their game to achieve their dreams, ambitions and goals.  This can be run for students with low motivation and aspiration, or those who could be aspiring to greater things
  3. Employability – Many students are not prepared for the world of work or for interviews. This programme provides students with a number of techniques to improve their ability to find work or a work placement - and the skills to get the job!
  4. Industry day - a day which can be tailored to your needs, but aimed to give an insight into business, usually in a sepecific industry or range of industries.   It introduces speakers from an industry or business to give an vivid insight into their world of work, then engages students with a hands-on enterprise challenge so they can get a real feel for what it would be like working there
  5. Personal Finance – With so many people lacking in a basic understanding of financial education, EiA’s fun but realistic finance programme provides students with a real understanding of the importance of money.

Our ground breaking 'Classroom to Boardroom' one week programme:

The business challenge week is a goal focused week with high energy activities, which combines fun, personal experiential learning and achievement, leading to a presentation to a business 'Boardroom'.  The overall objective is to enhance the student’s understanding of business and enterprise and we work with major businesses and public organisations to ensure the a very 'real' enterprise experience.  It can be run in school or college, in an off site venue or as a residential.
