Empowering Your Child’s Future
If anyone knows just how creative and curious your 11 or 12 year old is, it’s you. They’re at a great stage in their lives right now, and it’s also a crucial one for their future development.
At this age, your child’s old enough to know a bit about how the working world works, enthusiastic enough to learn and work together with their peers, and still young enough to be unaffected by the growing “career pressure” that comes with secondary education. That’s why it’s the perfect time for them to take part in the Junior Entrepreneur Programme, and get a practical taste of real-world experience that’ll stand to them for life.
HELPING WITH MATHS
During JEP, children invest a small amount of money and need to monitor costs and sales closely to ensure they create a profit. They learn fast when they are talking about their own money. In a JEP survey 85% of teachers said that JEP enhanced the teaching of maths. 97% of participating pupils said they would recommend it to a friend.
HOW CAN YOUR CHILD PARTICIPATE?
If you’re interested in having your child take part in JEP, speak to their teacher who, if they wish to proceed, can sign up the class with JEP. The Programme is free of charge and the signup is currently open. The JEP team will be delighted to speak to your teacher. As JEP is a schools programme, we are not in a position to engage directly with parents.
The SOCIETAL Benefits
100% of teachers surveyed by JEP said that the programme was beneficial to both pupils and their school. If you sign up your class, you’ll be part of a movement which has allowed 75,000 Irish children to realise their creative potential since 2010.
