Discussion with Principals Principals from early learning centres (ECEC) (age 0 – 5 years) schools in Pretoria, together with JVK 400 students had a very successful panel discussion on 2 November 2017 at Groenkloof Campus.

The principals shared their knowledge and experiences with students on entrepreneurism opportunities in the field of early childhood education and care. Other areas that were addressed were the handling of an ECEC centre budget, marketing, policies and the handling of parents. Members from the Association for the Education and Care of Young Children (AECYC) and the South African Teachers Union (SAOU) also informed the students of the importance of these organisations within SA schools.

All attended gained valuable knowledge on the possibilities of entrepreneurship and support once they are teachers.
