In Year 5 and 6, we have started a new topic on Financial Education. Miss Dixon and Mrs Doveston completed some training last year on the importance of teaching Financial Education to children, opening their eyes to different methods of payment and the importance of budgets. We have been learning about exchange rates, budgets, spending (wants vs needs), bank statements, being a critical consumer and how to avoid influence, scams and phishing. We are really proud of how well the children have engaged in these lessons and strongly believe that when we begin discussing finance now, children will grow up with a better understanding of how to manage their money correctly.
