TeacherThe Money Heroes training session taught me that money shouldn't just be taught in maths lessons, there are loads of cross-curricular links. We should be talking to children about money from a young age.
TeacherMoney Heroes has some brilliant resources to use with the children in year 6. Very valuable life skills can be taught from these resources and ideas.
TeacherThe best thing about the Money Heroes training session was finding out about the online resources to help plan and deliver lessons. Thinking about all of the different ways that children are already financially active and thinking about what to teach to children to help them become financially safe/savvy.
TeacherJust to say a big thank you for [the Money Heroes training session] yesterday - it was really informative and will most definitely be helpful in helping us to plan for coverage in the new curriculum.
Year 4 pupil“It was really fun and taught us a lot about managing money and I learnt stuff I didn’t know, if I have £10 and want to get 10 things, I have to try and fit them in my budget and not ask my mum for more money”
Year 5 pupil“When we played the game and read the books it was a good way to learn, in a fun way”
Year 5 pupil“You now understand what your parents are going through. I understand the money and what parents have to go through to get you what you want and food and things”.
Parent“She can understand Mum needs to work hard to get nice things, and it’s the fundamental learning point for me, and I’ve got that from Money Heroes”
Teacher“It was good that everything you needed was included within the downloadable activities which made them very easy to use… It’s one of those things that you just never get around to, so if it’s there you are much more inclined to do that. If I had to create it myself, you would never get around to it”.
Parent“They are books he goes to again and again, as he thinks they are funny– they don’t just sit on his shelf”
