Abstract

As science, technologies and communication progress, people develop new customs, mindsets and aspirations, resulting in new demands and social and behavioral changes. When people’s behavior changes, companies recognize this change and adapt accordingly. Thus, even though it is not a recent idea, this article intends to conceptualize the word entrepreneurship in the view of renowned authors who are dedicated to the subject, to analyze and consider the concept of entrepreneurship in school, to make some reflections about the need for entrepreneurship in human life and, as a way of favoring learning, school could not be excluded, an effective means of transmitting how to undertake, nurturing students from an early age to the idea that doing so is part of individual success, whether as a business creator or as an innovator of practices and actions in your day-to-day life. Using bibliographical research, notably by authors who have dedicated themselves to the concept of entrepreneurship at school, an analysis and considerations are made about it, based on some actions aimed at promoting and developing the theme in schools. The entrepreneurship approach at school develops skills, critical thinking and creativity in problem solving by students, providing means for greater autonomy, confidence and the ability to take calculated risks. The results have shown that there are challenges to be faced in implementing the theme, whether in the discussion of the subject, or in terms of teacher training, adapting curricula and integrating this approach into traditional educational systems.
