Empowering children to manage money wisely.
About us
Just Finance Foundation is a national charity dedicated to improving financial education so that every child and family has equal opportunity to thrive. Research shows that children start to learn essential money habits as early as ages 3 through 7. However, financial education is rarely taught until secondary school. This means that gaps in a child’s ability to understand and relate to money are already in place by their teenage years. We work directly with schools, families and changemakers to address these gaps and give every child an equal baseline understanding of money, regardless of their personal circumstances. This provides the essential foundation children need to become adults with the knowledge, skills and values to manage money wisely.

Financial literacy is not only a skill – it’s an essential for lifelong wellbeing. Every child deserves to access this vital education, regardless of where they live or how they learn. As the government prepares for the Autumn Budget and an upcoming curriculum review, we’re calling for immediate steps to strengthen financial education for primary school children. 1️⃣ Invest in Quality Resources and Providers: Ensuring access to high-quality financial education resources empowers children to build foundational skills early. 2️⃣ Increase Training and Support for Teachers: Primary educators need robust training and support to deliver financial education confidently and effectively. 3️⃣ Tailor Resources for Children with Additional Learning Needs: Providing accessible, inclusive resources for diverse learning needs ensures that every child can benefit from financial education. Sarah Wallace, Director at Just Finance Foundation, said: “This government must demonstrate that our children’s future financial wellbeing is a priority. By investing in quality resources, teacher training, and inclusive financial education tailored to every child’s needs, we can equip the next generation with essential life skills. Financial literacy isn’t a luxury; it’s a necessity for building a fairer, more financially secure society. It’s time we ensure that every child, regardless of background or ability, has access to this vital learning.” 👉 Read more: https://ow.ly/FKnp50TVAU8
