I've been Money Tipped! Newshound! PPI Party Pooper Chutzpah Haggler
The All Party Parliamentary Group of MPs who champion financial education want to hear from teachers and other interested organisations who've been involved in delivering financial education over the past few years.

It's undertaking an 'impact and effectiveness' inquiry to find remaining barriers, examples of best practice and identify how teachers can be more supported. If you've any views to share please do feed them in to the inquiry.

Getting financial education on the English curriculum was a wonderful win, but we know it's only the beginning.

We need to ensure teachers feel supported and have access to well developed resources and to push for more financial education in primary schools, so that we better enable and empower our children to live in this competitive consumer economy.

    I'm more interested in the grammar, sorry.

    Wouldn't it be better to ask 'How much impact does financial education have in your school'?


    Or 'How effective is financial education in your school?'
