Our Financial Literacy Skills Curriculum aims to ensure pupils have a broad understanding of essential financial terms, products and services so they can make informed and effective decisions with their financial resources, but also ensuring the foundational financial knowledge and skills expected in most jobs. The sessions also develop multiple employability skills.
Sessions are between 45minutes-1hour long.
