Financial education built for real life

Six programmes designed around the actual questions people ask at different life stages.

We've organized our teaching around the moments when financial decisions actually matter. Not abstract theory, but practical skills you can use this month.

Foundation Years (Ages 7-12)

£247.50

The years when money habits form, often without anyone noticing.

Children this age are starting to receive pocket money, birthday cash, small amounts they can control. What they learn now about earning, saving, spending, and giving shapes their relationship with money for decades.

What we cover

  • Where money comes from and why it has value
  • The difference between wants and needs
  • How saving works and why waiting can get you more
  • Basic budgeting with real pocket money
  • Compound interest explained through examples they understand
  • Making choices with limited resources
  • The concept of giving and financial generosity
  • How banks work and what they do with your money

Eight weekly sessions, one hour each. Runs during term time with materials for parents to reinforce learning at home.

Teen Finance Realities (Ages 13-17)

£395.75

First jobs, student accounts, university decisions looming. Money becomes real, and mistakes start costing actual pounds.

This is when most teenagers get their first bank account, first paycheck, first experience with real financial responsibility. Getting it right early prevents expensive learning curves later.

Young Adult Foundations (Ages 18-25)

£456.25

Student loans, first real salary, rent deposits, pension auto-enrollment. The financial decisions made in these years echo for decades.

This is when income jumps but so do expenses. When pension contributions start but retirement feels impossibly far away. When investment becomes possible but confusing.

£578.90

Mortgages, children, career growth, investment diversification, pension optimization. Money gets complicated, and expensive mistakes become more costly.
