In a recent Financial Times article, Claer Barrett highlights that nearly two-thirds of young adults in the UK report receiving no #FinancialEducation in school, while 23 million people lack basic money management skills. Our CEO, Leon Ward, featured in the piece, stresses that “the language of money is a language for life,” comparing financial literacy to essential skills like speaking, reading, and writing—a view echoed by our partner abrdn's Chairman, Sir Douglas Flint, who also shares his insights. This article reinforces the urgent need for early, high-quality financial education. A must-read! https://lnkd.in/evYCtHix

💭 Did you know 94% of teachers believe financial literacy should be taught by teachers themselves? However, despite good intentions, this is unfortunately an unachievable goal due to the tight regulations around providing financial advice. 😣 That’s why we’ve worked closely with teachers to understand the nuances of the #AustralianCurriculum and ensure our program meets their needs. 🤝 We’ve designed a plug-and-play program that makes it as easy as possible for teachers to provide their students with essential financial skills, without overstepping any regulatory boundaries. For more information on our program, check out our recent article below or reach out to James Adcock and Sam Kirkwood 🔗 https://buff.ly/3Yn50Sm #WorldTeachersDay #FinancialLiteracy #TeachersMatter #FutureFinances #EducationForAll
