The article explores different themes within entrepreneurship education via the use of a systematic literature review (SLR). SLR are recognized methods for conducting evidence-based policy. The particular approach to the SLR used in the study is explained. The findings outlining a thematic framework drawn from narrative coding is explored. The findings support the conclusion that entrepreneurship education has had an impact on student propensity and intentionality. The findings also highlight a lack of consensus on what entrepreneurship or enterprise education actually is when implemented in practice.
