I'm keen to know:
  • Did you do a financial education course as a GCSE or A-level equivalent qualification? What was it like? Are you glad you did it?
Or, if you didn't:
  • Would you consider doing a financial education course as a GCSE or A-level equivalent, if you were offered the chance?

  • Back in my time ( a long time ago LOL) there were no "financial education " courses or exam qualifications. I did Economics as one of my four A Levels and later did a degree in Politics and Economics at UCL and found the qualifications of great use. The new courses you mention sound excellent and I would strongly recommend such courses and exams.
