Summary/Abstract: The case study in Dafen school represents a successful whole school experience of adulteducation through the EntreCompEdu continuing professional development programme(CPD). It represents how teacher collaboration enhances collective engagement to developcreative, innovative, and risk-taking abilities through teaching practices. It portrays howteachers’ collective engagement has an amplifying impact upon implementation, energy, andconfidence; especially influencing the entrepreneurial practice on student learning and theculture of a whole school. It validates how the headteacher and teachers collaborative actionenhanced the adult learning in adoption of the new Welsh curricula. In this study we propose that the success of the teachers’ professional development in learning to applyentrepreneurship education stems from a double loop of collaborative adult online learningand collective engagement under a pressure from the new entrants; a new curricula reformset by the Welsh government and the Covid-19 lockdown.
