Citizenship at key stage 4 (Year 10-11)
Unit 06: Business and enterprise
This unit uses a range of business and enterprise activities to enable pupils to gain practical experience of how the local economy works. Pupils explore the range of business activities in their local area and consider the importance of these businesses to the local economy. They have the opportunity to work in groups and contribute to group decision-making activities.
Some of the team-based activities in this unit involve local education business links, organisations and employers. These could be arranged for a class or a whole year group. Work experience can also be used as an opportunity for pupils to conduct part of their research.
1. What businesses are there in my area?
2. How does a business operate?
3. What are the challenges for local businesses? Exploring town centre management and development
