This programme references the UK’s Financial Education Planning Framework for teachers and complements our Money Twist suite of directly delivered sessions and digital products.
Money Twist involves writing, drawing, maths and problem-solving. We use videos and MyBnk Manga comics to engage students so they can remember new knowledge and form their own opinions. Underpinning behaviour change is the development of executive functions.
