Developing young people’s core transferable skills gives them the tools to manage money, understand risk and build good financial habits throughout their life. Through LifeSkills sessions we introduce aspects of finance from an early age (primary) and encourage young people to explore mathematical concepts through real world examples. Financial education is important to help young people build their knowledge for future financial wellbeing.
By the end of this activity pupils will be able to:
Make simple choices based on value for money when purchasing
Recognise the need for planning for the future and saving money
Understand how to keep money safe
Become aware of scams and fraud and know some ways to protect themselves from it
Suitable for age 8 - 12 years. Glow access required.
