Enterprise Studies

What is ESP?
Enterprise Studies is an innovative, action based programme targeting the economics, social studies and technology curriculum areas. It is an exciting, proven and well resourced programme with over 12,000 graduates each year. ESP targets the junior secondary school, predominantly Year 10, and takes the students through a journey of self discovery, team work and motivation culminating in NCEA credits and two exciting competitions.

Why ESP?
ESP takes an experiential approach to learning and involves the students in the development of their own enterprising projects with a focus on their local community. It bridges the gap between learning and doing, and gives students skills that will enable them a competitive edge over their peers.

BP Innovation Enterprise Project
Students are asked to submit a one page summary of how their contribution to their ESP Market Day demonstrates innovation. This could be through the type of product/service they offer, an innovative selling technique, presentation or process of managing their team. The most innovative teams will be displayed on the ESP website and will be eligible for awesome prizes, which includes an all expenses paid 'Capital Experience'. Student awards include cash prizes.

BP Community Enterprise Project
The BP Community Enterprise Project allows students to demonstrate their understanding of the objectives of both business and non-profit enterprises, and how they work together as part of the community to create income, wealth and well-being.

The successful teams will receive funding of up to $1,000 to implement their project with the National winner being presented their trophy at a presentation in Wellington. Student awards include cash prizes.
