Abstract

Entrepreneurship education has increased in prominence over the past decade yet somewhat paradoxically remains outside the statutory school curriculum in many places, including the UK. Despite this, there has been a growing movement to embed enterprise education widely, including supporting enterprise through community-based learning. This article is the output from a participatory action research case study which analyzes the implementation of community-based enterprise learning in Rotherham (UK) and examines the experiences of developing community-based enterprise learning and the challenges of creating a sustainable model. The article finds that such a model depends on creating an effective community of practice with distributed leadership that is able to co-produce community-based enterprise learning. The article concludes by reflecting on the emerging model and identifies recommendations for achieving sustainable community-based enterprise learning.
