Business-Learning-Journey-Final

Our Vision  Enterprise is a rich and varied subject that prepares students for all aspects of working life. Our vision at Grainville is to ensure that no matter what industry students will eventually find themselves in after their learning journey, they will work successfully and understand the nature of working in an organisation with other people and clear objectives. People who are successful entrepreneurs not only transform their own lives but the lives of others, James Dyson helped keep our houses clean and Steve Jobs connected us to the world around us through his revolutionary Apple products. Enterprise is a broad and fascinating subject that keeps evolving as the world that we live in as employers, employees and consumers does too. Enterprise therefore underpins almost any role and as such can offer exciting and well-paid careers
  Our Intent   To ensure that every student gets the opportunity to explore real business issues and how businesses work. The depth and breadth of the content is designed to engage and inspire students through topics and issues that are relevant in today’s society.  They will study key contemporary developments such as digital technology and business ethics which typically looks at how businesses make decision and their community involvement, helping students to reflect critically on theirs. The curriculum continues to focus on developing resilient learners who can recover from mistakes and effectively solve problems. This will help develop lifelong learning and future preparation. We endeavour to make the curriculum as fun and interesting as possible with a high level of challenge by offering breadth and depth of experiences for the students in order to motivate their active engagement and inspire them to be successful business people or even the next famous Entrepreneur! Our intent is to ensure that students develop and achieve an understanding of enterprises that is directly transferable, not only to other subjects, but also beyond, developing a wide range of practical and theoretical skills that will prepare them for the future. Therefore, this course is aimed to prepare students with the knowledge, skills and confidence to be ready for the next stage of their life either in further education or career.
