Virtual encounters with self-employed people/entrepreneurs
Our region is home to a huge variety of businesses and organisations. Some are very small and some have started small and grown. The person who has started this business is usually the business owner or entrepreneur. In order for children and young people to see real, local role models of entrepreneurs we have captured some on video and uploaded them to YouTube for you to use. We have grouped them into KS1, KS2, and KS3 playlists to make it easy for you to see which ones might be most relevant for your class or curriculum area. Alongside these videos we have also created a short powerpoint that could be used in class. Download the KS1 Entrepreneurs presentation (a link to the YouTube playlist is provided in the presentation slides) Download the KS2 Entrepreneurs presentation (a link to the YouTube playlist is provided in the presentation slides) Download the KS3 Entrepreneurs presentation (a link to the YouTube playlist is provided in the presentation slides)
