The #EducationSelectCommittee has today published the report from its recent inquiry into #FinancialEducation, and the Centre fully supports its recommendation that financial education provision in the UK must be expanded for primary-aged children. 🙌 🎉 This is a fantastic outcome, truly a landmark step to building a stronger financial future for children and young people across the UK! 🎉 📒 We are absolutely thrilled to see the Committee recommend financial education become a statutory part of the primary school curriculum, as this is an issue the Centre has been campaigning on since 2021 and through the KickStart Money campaign since 2018! 📖 We were also very glad to see the Centre’s research mentioned in this report – we contributed to the inquiry by submitting written evidence and through the compelling oral evidence of one of our Trustees, Louise Hill, CEO of GoHenry. 🏫 Our submission highlighted the dire state of financial education provision in primary schools, with our research finding that, shockingly, just 1 in 3 primary-aged children receive any form of financial education at school. We see the recommendations of this report as a major first step to improving on the current patchy delivery of financial education. Our Director, Stewart Perry, responded to the inquiry’s report:  “We are delighted to see the recommendation that provision of financial education should be expanded at primary level and that the subject should become a statutory part of the curriculum. We look forward to hearing the Government's response to the findings of this landmark inquiry, and we urge Department for Education to implement the Committee’s recommendations as soon as possible to give our young people the best possible chance at navigating today's complex financial landscape.” 💳🎮 You can read the full report here: https://lnkd.in/e_mFnXJk GoHenry Young Enterprise UK MyBnk RedSTART Educate FT FLIC | Financial Literacy & Inclusion Campaign The Money Charity Campaign for Learning The Just Finance Foundation Robin Walker Carol Knight Jane Goodland Tammie Tang Marcel Lukas, PhD LSEG (London Stock Exchange Group) Association of British Insurers Aviva Columbia Threadneedle Investments EMEA APAC Franklin Templeton Janus Henderson Investors Liontrust Asset Management PLC Newton Investment Management Quilter St. James’s Place TISA UK
