Resources for schools

Primary settings

We are launching the Enterprise Troopers primary school challenge for 2023-24.

The challenge aims to nurture learner’s entrepreneurial attitudes. It is open to all primary schools across Wales.

We are offering a series of regional in-person and online Professional Learning Workshops. These will take place throughout the Autumn and Spring terms. They will provide an insight into the challenge. The workshops will also help with embedding enterprise skills in the curriculum.

Secondary settings

Secondary schools can contact us throughout the year to arrange a Big Ideas Wales role model workshop for learners. Workshops are a great way to introduce learners to inspirational individuals and the idea of entrepreneurship.
