The focus of the It's My Future project is on cultivating an entrepreneurial culture in middle grades schools, strengthening competence # 7, entrepreneurship and initiative, building self-confidence that leads to fewer drop outs, better education choices and a stronger awareness of one’s particular talents and skills. There is a lot going on at upper secondary and not enough going on lower down. This is an age level where students often make a “major education move” in terms of where they go next in their schooling career and prevent school drop-out. It’s an age which is very open and creative and can often be a turning point in children’s lives. It is an important time for role models, too.  The consortium partners are persuaded that collaborating with peers in other countries to curate, design and develop entrepreneurial learning content, make it digital using blended learning approaches and training materials for middle grades will yield more value at the national level and build stronger peer-to-peer links for such work in the future. The project will be building on knowledge and expertise that already exists to create a 360° educational approach that combines learning outcomes with assessment, formal with informal learning, in-school and out-of-school experiences, local and international engagement, teachers and mentors, digital media with face-to-face activity is the key to impactful entrepreneurship education.  The initiative proposed here will help schools and educators put all this together, building an entrepreneurship education ecosystem especially for middle grades. An innovation cluster made up of experienced practitioners, teachers, specialized experts and external partners, building on existing good practice, will further develop the offering for this age group including tools, methods and content, teacher training, mentoring, partnership models with external stakeholders including parents, an international dimension, competition elements and assessment tools.  We expect to reach out to 42 schools, train 210 teachers, engage 210 business volunteers and impact 5250 students across 7 European countries with the possibility to expend this further to other countries
