Abstract

Starting from the premise that the development of entrepreneurial spirit is an educational ideal and entrepreneurial skills are key European competencies, this paper aims to assess the entrepreneurial spirit and intention among high school students, as well as the role of pre-university education institutions in shaping their attitudes and entrepreneurial intentions. To achieve the research objectives, a quantitative research method was employed, and the research instrument used was a questionnaire administered to a sample of 147 high school students. The results reveal that, to foster their entrepreneurial spirit and intention, high school students need appropriate support and guidance from schools, universities, and the community in general. Providing a conductive environment and support in developing entrepreneurial skills can create optimal conditions for young people to explore their potential and put their ideas into practice.
