PrEP

=PrEP= __What's It All About?__ 
 * The Primary Enterprise Programme **
 * PrEP **
 * 

Students run business ventures as well as taking on the responsibilities of running their own school economy and society. In their roles within business, students create jobs, income and wealth for their fellow students. Within their business economy they discover the need for rules and laws to ensure it runs in a healthy and successful way.
 * //Students are enterprising //**

**//Students govern //** Students elected from each senior class create rules and laws (for consumers and citizens as well) to support good business practice and ‘lawful’ citizenship. By its very nature, PrEP students identify and provide solutions to problems by applying all curriculum areas and essential skills.

**//Students seek and create employment //** During pre PrEP activities, students prepare Curricula Vitae, and apply for jobs. While PrEP is operating students set up business partnerships, prepare a business plan - including budgeting and marketing, purchase resources for their business from the warehouse, make their goods and services and supply their school market. Business activity is real; their school money has value for them. ||  ||  ||  || <span style="mso-bookmark: _Toc51137054;">**//<span style="font-size: 13pt; color: black; font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-fareast-language: EN-NZ;">Students create paid employment //** <span style="font-size: 13pt; color: #d8001d; font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-fareast-language: EN-NZ;">

<span style="font-size: 13pt; color: #d8001d; font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-fareast-language: EN-NZ;">The majority of students’ time in PrEP is spent engaged in enterprising endeavours. Students take risks, they trade between businesses, and between businesses and consumers. They keep accounting records and determine profit (or loss). Through their own income generation and spending students are also able to explore personal financial decisions and their implications. <span style="font-size: 13pt; color: #555555; font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-fareast-language: EN-NZ;"> Students most often work across year levels, thereby creating a ‘community of interactive learning’. Students are involved in PrEP over a number of years, thereby taking on a variety of employment roles, and careers in a variety of ventures, e.g. banking, manufacturing, services, with opportunities to become managers of businesses. As well they have opportunities to become entrepreneurs and start up their own businesses. We hope to move to middle then junior schools over time.

PrEP in action is scheduled for Term 3 and two market days are held. The evaluation of learning by students and teachers in PrEP is an ongoing process. || media type="custom" key="4265593"
