Research has shown that we form our financial attitudes early, often by the age of seven and so the importance of developing young people’s attitudes towards money early on in life is crucial. Managing one’s finances is more than just being able to ‘do the maths’, it is also about understanding that the decisions we make about money, and our attitudes to the things we can do with it (spending, saving, borrowing, lending and investing) will have an impact on financial security in adult life.

This training, delivered by our expert financial education consultants, aims to explore the ways in which primary schools approach financial education in mathematics. It will offer practical tools and ideas to enhance the engagement of your pupils and looks at the different themes to incorporate financial education into your teaching of mathematics that has been proven to raise attainment.
