Description
Summary:"Financial education was introduced to the curriculum in 2000 with the aim of preparing every child for the practicalities of adult life. However many teachers felt ill-equipped to deliver it due to a lack of experience of finance themselves. Ann Jobling, a PSHE co-ordinator at Thornaby Community College in Stockton, says that when she started to teach the subject resources were almost non-existent. She looked for outside help and came across a financial charity called PFEG who provided a starting point and enabled Ann to build up a bank of useful information. This programme follows Ann as she uses the internet, worksheets and files provided by the government, charities and financial organisations. We watch Ann deliver a lively and inspiring lesson and hear what the pupils have to say. Ann is joined by PFEG consultant Judy Short who comments on Ann's lesson and offers advice to other teachers who find themselves in a similar situation."
