We have developed and refined a broad range of courses for students from primary to university age, designed to be both rigorous and engaging.
Discuss your requirementsStudents trace the history of money from basic barter through to modern digital currency, using a structured role-play format. The session covers the concept of exchange, the development of currency, and introduces the idea of financial safety. It is consistently well-received, and students frequently take their learning home to share with parents.
One of our most popular modules. Using a proprietary model of the UK economy, students are assigned Cabinet roles — with a Chancellor responsible for final decisions. Ministers make the case for their departmental budgets, the Chancellor adjusts tax rates with visible economic consequences, and the wider class evaluates outcomes. The session integrates naturally with civics, politics, and economics curricula.
The UK student loan system is among the more complex financial arrangements young people will encounter, yet few receive adequate guidance before committing to it. This course provides a clear and thorough explanation of the full process — from application through to repayment — and equips students to make informed decisions. It is frequently combined with our university budgeting module to form a half-day seminar.
Whether students are already in part-time employment, entering the workforce directly, or preparing for post-university careers, understanding a payslip is a fundamental skill. This session examines each deduction in detail — income tax, National Insurance, pension contributions, and student loan repayments — explaining both the mechanics and the broader context of public finance. It is consistently well-received, and we are regularly invited to return to explore related topics such as workplace pensions.
A practical, honest look at managing money as a student — covering student finance, budgeting, the cost of living, and how to avoid the common pitfalls. Often combined with the Student Loan module for a comprehensive half-day session.
An accessible introduction to saving and investing: the difference between them, how markets work, the power of compound growth, and how to avoid the most common investment mistakes — including spotting scams. Relevant from the very first payslip onwards.
The above represents a selection of what we offer. We design bespoke programmes as a matter of course — please contact us to discuss your specific requirements.
