Abstract

Over last few decades, political agenda has been to gear education towards producing citizens who are capable of competing in an international marketplace. One purpose of New Zealand Curriculum Framework (1993) is to outline ways in which curriculum can balance the interests of individual students and requirements of society and economy (p. 1). In fullness of such a goal, students will need to demonstrate self-efficacy for enterprise. In turn, teachers will need to value enterprise in their students, and to teach in ways that show that they believe they can impact on students' willingness and capability to be enterprising. Is this case in our schools? The evidence suggests, as Churchill put it, that are shaping world faster than we can change ourselves, and we are applying to present habits of past (Walsh, 1993, p. 21).
