Tomorrow’s Enterprise Foundation delivers enterprise education experiences that bring real-world business directly into the classroom. Our mission is to unlock the potential of today’s young people and inspire the next generation of employees, business leaders, and innovators.

We collaborate with local organisations to design and deliver our innovative enterprise experiences in schools, helping students develop practical skills, gain hands-on experience, and receive up-to-date guidance from business experts in their community.

Our flagship programme, Project Can Do, has a proven track record of improving young people’s employment prospects while enabling businesses to nurture a pipeline of skilled local talent.

We wanted to help our students to aim higher and imagine new possibilities for their lives. Project Can Do does exactly that and a lot more! We want to give this opportunity to as many of our students as possible.

Since engaging with Project Can Do, my son is like a changed person at home. He told me this morning that it has changed his life. I've never seen him so motivated to get the most out of every day.

97% of our students report improvements in self-confidence

87% learned new skills

78% say the programme has given them new ideas about their future

1 in 5 students would now consider starting their own business

Improvements in self-confidence and self-esteem can help young people with almost every aspect of their life.

Including leadership, team working, communication, problem solving and time-management.

Our guest speakers and real-world case studies introduce the students to inspirational and aspirational career ideas.

This is double the national average for young people in secondary education in the UK.

I never thought I'd see some of our students having the confidence to stand up and present to a room full of people. It will unlock a lifetime of opportunities for them.  

It's the 'Project Can Do' effect!

Starting my own business changed my life. Now, I want to give young people the same opportunity

Jonathan Maguire
Founder and Director, Tomorrow's Enterprise Foundation

Enterprise and entrepreneurship is about much more than just starting a business – it instils life skills such as the ability to think creatively and ambitiously. It’s about engaging with the world around you, being curious, embracing failure, identifying challenges and seizing opportunities.


As it stands, the UK education system is failing to equip young people with the skills, experience and professional networks they'll need to flourish in our modern society. At the same time, businesses in the UK are struggling to source, recruit and retain talented young people with the right skills for their industries.

 

The issues contributing to this failure are compounded for students who struggle to perform within the rigid testing systems of standard academia and living in regions of low-economic activity. It makes total sense to create a programme that tackles both of these issues.

 

Project Can Do provides skills training for young people living in areas of multiple deprivation, giving them the opportunity to demonstrate their abilities in a project-based setting, and connecting them to local employers across various industries.

This programme is a great way for students to learn about their own unique skills and passions, to build self-confidence, self-esteem and resilience, to gain access to a supportive and inspiring network of local business experts, and to learn more about the world around them.

Whether it's a journey of entrepreneurship or a pathway to purposeful employment, our programmes give young people the head start they'll need to flourish and to help create a world we can all be proud of.
