Today, our COO, Russell Winnard, joined #MartinLewis at the Education Select Committee’s inquiry into financial education in schools. As part of this discussion, Russell highlighted our bespoke #FinancialEducation teacher training offer and the transformative impact this has had on teachers’ confidence in delivering high-quality financial education.   Russell referenced the University of Edinburgh Business School research study conducted on our teacher training programme, which revealed that even a short training session had a significant impact on educators two years on. Training increases teachers' confidence, and they are able to develop their abilities and practices to curate relevant and practical financial education sessions suited to their students.   Russell particularly reinforced the premise that teachers are the driving force of sustainable financial education, and it's imperative that they are equipped with high-quality resources, training, and support to consistently embed sustainable financial education in schools so that young people can become financially capable.   Find out more about our teacher training opportunities: https://lnkd.in/dE65jiv   #Inquiry #TeacherTraining #FinancialEducation

Every point raised here truly relates and shows the true potential already in school classrooms across the UK. Train and fund the specific Financial Education training required for teachers, and through their teaching skills and unquestionable best intentions they will deliver. As stated, this will then allow teachers to be the driving force behind providing young people the financial education required to allow them to greater navigate their respective futures. Let's continue this momentum for better compulsory financial education in UK schools. https://lnkd.in/eP2Ar7CF

Amen 🙏 Delivering 'on the front line' in Schools teaching Financial Education I hear almost DAILY teachers telling me that they wish they had been taught this at school and that they, themselves WISH had they been taught Financial Education as part of their job role as they CAN see the direct impact it has on Young People's lives. For those who don't know, Martin Lewis is a trailblazer for Financial Education and his campaign in 2014 is the reason it even appears on the school curriculum. And an extra bonus for those who don't know...Financial Education is split between Maths and Citizenship classes and it is NOT a stand alone subject that schools are obliged to deliver and educate on. ⛔ Basically it isn't a priority for many and it's not being delivered enough. Working with The Money Charity my challenges attempting to teach Financial Education in Schools have been: Teachers haven't been told enough about Financial Education so don't have any idea when or where it can be delivered ie: tutor sessions, off timetable days, Maths lesson ⭕ The fear of teaching the young people about credit and other topics as there are concerns whether it is too soon for them at their age ⭕ Who in the school wants to take ownership of facilitating the workshops/liaising as no one wants to step on someone else's toes ⭕ Teachers are quite simply over worked and over stretched and this is another stress to add to their lives - and i get it. But here's what you CAN do: ⭕ Interact with people who talk about the importance, such as myself, right here, on this post. The louder we are the better chance we all have of a Financially Well society. Do you have some great ideas to share or tips to improve the chances of more Young People being Financially Educated? ⭕ If you have children at school, ask the school what they are doing about delivery of Financial Education ⭕ Teach your kids Financial Literacy, if they enjoy it then at least they are being taught rather than not Russel talks here about how even a short training session had a significant impact on educators two years on. Such an impact. Financial Education is not a nice to have, it's a necessity that has the ability to change the trajectory of a young persons life and schools NEED to provide Financial Education so that the next generation can achieve improved Financial Wellbeing. #MartinLewis #Teachers #Schools #FinancialEducation

Opinions are great, educated ones even more so, but evidence is everything. Our brilliant Young Enterprise UK colleague Russell Winnard, and a certain Mr Martin Lewis, sharing the many irrefutable reasons why financial education in schools is so important, and the earlier the better. It’s no longer a ‘nice to have’. Young people must be equipped for the future with good financial awareness and aspirational, enterprising mindsets. We are here with the evidence, the resources and the expertise, now we need the commitment at a national level. 💡 👇🏼

The government and the financial system needs to understand this. We cannot continue to put more and more burden on individuals to do everything from managing their own savings and investments as well as stewarding their pension pots without the financial education or support to do this, coupled with businesses continuing to externalise the impacts they have on people (including financial outcomes) and planet. At the moment we are failing on both scores. There is an opportunity to align the system by providing financial education to empower individual choice and address systemic inequality while also aligning companies responsibilities with people and planet, not just short-term profits. I know which option I would be backing. Individual financial empowerment (financial education on the national curriculum) + company responsibility for people and planet (via the Better Business Act) are two massive systemic levers. #financialeducation #businessresponsibility

Ian Mearns asked a cracking question in a recent #EducationSelectCommittee inquiry on improving #financialeducation. How do you make financial education relavent & relatable without assuming access to money as a given. Because for many young people it isn’t. My answer was that you need to make it real through #appliedlearning. Today, we were grateful for Ian’s time to see first hand at Cardinal Hume Catholic School in Gateshead, how Young Enterprise UK does just that. Teaching young people how to earn & look after their money via #CompanyProgramme. Bringing financial & enterprise education together through applied learning. Fantastic to hear young people sharing how they plan to transfer what they’ve learned about financial planning through running their YE Company into their own lives and futures. All within an economic climate where #consistent access to #opportunities to learn how to make the most of your money has never been more important. Looking forward to seeing the Education Select Committees report and recommendations on how we improve young people’s access to financial education. It certainly feels they are giving this issue the critical attention it deserves 🙏 Carolyn Adgar, Jill Tinsley, Maurice Hepworth, Ian Mearns, Robin Walker, Andrew Lewer, Caroline Ansell, Vicky Ford MP, Mohammad Yasin MP, Rt Hon.
