Social enterprise in the classroom

The IB Business Management Diploma program requires students to respond to an exam paper about a social enterprise. Here at Santa Sabina, we offer students many opportunities to explore the positive impact that social enterprises have in our community. Below are student testimonials from a presentation from Sr Sheila on the Kopanang Community Trust.

‘Attending Sr Sheila Flynn’s presentation on the Kopanang Community Trust was a transformative experience for me as a Year 11 Business Management student in the IBDP. Sr Sheila’s insights into the establishment of this social enterprise provided a real-world perspective on the principles we’ve been studying. Learning about the Kopanang Community Trust highlighted the profound impact social enterprises can have on empowering individuals, specifically women, to lead more meaningful lives.’

‘Attending Sr Sheila Flynn’s presentation was insightful as it provided a deep dive into the world of social enterprises, a crucial aspect of our curriculum for the upcoming Paper 3 examination. Sr Sheila’s passionate explanation of how Kopanang empowers women to lead meaningful lives left a lasting impression on me. This experience not only broadened my understanding of the subject but also inspired me to recognise the transformative potential of business in creating positive social change.’
