igniting girls' hearts and
entrepreneurial spirit
In addition to a curriculum that drives academic
excellence from Kindergarten to Grade 11, Miss Edgar's
and Miss Cramp's School’s Entrepreneurial Platform encourages students to do things differently, just as the school’s founders did. Students have an active say in their learning by participating in collaborative, hands-on entrepreneurial initiatives where they can apply their school knowledge to real-life situations that they truly care about.
Junior school
Kindergarten to Grade 6
Children need to feel safe and hopeful about their environment and even the smallest learners have a say in brainstorming the topics that projects will focus on for the year. Students start by choosing what they want to change in the world, such as the environment, animal protection, and women's rights, and from there they begin to build their projects.
Initiatives include
Subscription boxes for animal justice, an e-commerce selling products from upcycled items, a marketing campaign for design content.
high school
Grades 7 to 11
Middle and Senior school students tend to focus on social justice and equity when planning their entrepreneurial projects.
The students in high school care about social activism
and community building and their projects often reflect that
by giving donations from their profits to local charities.
Food for Friends which supported local restaurants during the pandemic, a theatre production produced and performed by students with all proceeds going to a women’s shelter, or the ECS Events Team promoting events at school to uplift student morale.
Initiatives include
The entrepreneurial platform follows a developmental trajectory
that is ethics based and supported by the school’s core values. Every project, whether it’s a social business, garden or app, needs
to respect the people we live among and the land we live upon.
