Commenting on the Department for Education’s Curriculum Review, Carol Knight, CEO of TISA, said:
“Teaching children about money is like explaining the rules of a game they’re already playing; with greater understanding, they can take part with confidence rather than uncertainty. Children encounter spending, digital payments, advertising and influence before they can even spell money, and they deserve the tools to navigate those experiences. This review rightly recognises that financial education is a core life skill, not an optional extra. TISA strongly welcomes the decision to include it as a compulsory part of the primary curriculum – something we have long been calling for.”
