Entreprenaws - Bringing business and enterprise into the classroom!


 My blog is all about sharing ideas to try and make learning more purposeful through the use of technology. Some of my previous posts about this worth a read are: When learning is real, learning matters! and Traditional Tales with Nando's

I am a massive fan of using technology and apps that provide a real world context for children to apply their knowledge and understanding. A new app, which fits this category perfectly is Entreprenaws. 


The app has been created by the Stepping into Business team, who are on a mission to try and teach and educate younger students about entrepreneurship and business. The app does this by developing a range of skills in a fun and engaging game. 

I have known about this app for a while as some of our pupils were lucky enough to test some early versions of the game. The reaction to it from our pupils was extremely positive: the discussions, explanations and problem solving the children were demonstrating from using the app was really impressive.  

I am very lucky to be given some free codes from the app on both Apple and Android. To be in with a chance of winning head over to my facebook page - facebook.com/ictwithmrp and share the following post, which shows you more about the app:
