Sean Gilligan on BBC Breakfast with Susanna Reid and

BBC Breakfast TV show presented by Susanna Reid and Bill Turnbull, invited Webanywhere Managing Director Sean Gilligan to discuss the possibility of including gardening as part of the revised National Curriculum yesterday.

Sean was interviewed alongside Chris Collins, Blue Peter’s resident gardener, who participated from his own back garden in promoting the benefits this new subject could bring to the children, such as physical exercise and team work.

Sean expressed his support too, stating that what he would like to see is “gardening combined with entrepreneurship and entrepreneurial education”. “Kids need to get out of the classroom, their learning environment affects their engagement, and engagement in education is so, so important” he added. During the interview, he highlighted the importance of having an entrepreneurial mindset even at an early stage. From his point of view, employability is fundamental for the education process, and should start at Primary schools.
