Developed and trialed over three years in a prominent high school in Gauteng.

🏫 Turnkey Programme

πŸ“Š Outcomes & Portfolios

πŸ“Œ Executive Overview

EdtrepreneurIgnite is an identity-first entrepreneurship programme that begins with learner strengths and direction, then translates these into real-world value creation, culminating in a portfolio and pitch-ready venture concept.

Designed for boutique and forward-thinking schools seeking distinctive outcomes without operational complexity.

⏱️ Timetable Fit

Minimum requirement: 2 Γ— 45-minute lessons per week

Typical format: 8–10 weeks per term, culminating in a Pitch Showcase (internal or judged event).

  • Lesson 1: Identity, strengths, motivators, personal direction
  • Lesson 2: Value creation, audience, concept build, feedback and pitch

πŸ“¦ What the School Receives

πŸ—ΊοΈ Term Plan & Pacing

A clear term plan with lesson structure aligned to a school timetable and assessment rhythm.

🧩 Learner Activities & Resources

Teacher-friendly activities and templates designed to generate visible portfolio outputs.

βœ… Assessment & Pitch Pack

Rubrics, criteria, pitch format, judging sheets, and optional showcase award categories.

πŸ§‘β€πŸ« Option A: Teacher-Led (with Training)

Your teacher delivers the programme using provided resources, supported by onboarding and training to ensure consistency and quality.

🀝 Option B: Co-Delivered

Shared facilitation for a smoother first rollout. Ideal when staff capacity is limited or when you want higher momentum.

🏫 Option C: Facilitated within EMS

The programme is facilitated by EdtrepreneurIgnite as a structured component of your school’s EMS classes, with teacher involvement and support.

βœ… Low-Risk Entry Option (Recommended)

Start with a 2-week micro-pilot (4 lessons) to demonstrate:

  • Learner engagement
  • Quality of portfolio outputs
  • Practical classroom fit

Then scale into a full-term rollout.

πŸ“… Next Step

A short meeting to confirm:

  • Grade level(s), class size, and term dates
  • Preferred implementation option (A, B, or C)
  • Pilot or full-term rollout plan

Result: learners leave with direction, confidence, and a pitch-ready portfolio, and the school gains a high-impact, future-ready entrepreneurship offering without operational complexity.

🎯 Who It’s For

  • Principals and Heads of School
  • Heads of EMS / Business Studies / Life Orientation
  • Innovation, enrichment, or futures-focused programmes
