Enterprise @ Burnside

Burnside delivers an explicit ‘Business and Enterprise’ characteristic which inspires and motivates students. In addition to developing business skills, we are committed to achieving an enterprise-based environment which is demonstrated by our enterprising approach to teaching and learning. This is achieved by:

Strong curriculum business links and teaching strengths in business education, financial capability, work-related learning and enterprise-related vocational programmes.
Enhanced economic and business understanding and a business and enterprise culture including an understanding of the ethical dimension of business, throughout the curriculum, e.g. through outcome based enrichment activities and involvement in our Leadership and Management Strategy (LAMS) combined with national initiatives and competitions and involvement in local Education Business Link consortia.
Investing and supporting the development of leadership skills of all their staff, including through innovative ways of deploying staff.
Cultivating a positive attitude toward risk taking and entrepreneurial attitudes.
