School: curriculum

What makes our financial literacy curriculum special? Our programmes are

age-specific: why different courses for different ages?
- maturity and maths levels are different at each age,
- some challenges are different too (giving change at 6 years old, peer pressure in pre-teen and teenage years)
- these notions (such as needs and wants or the reasons for saving) are so fundamental, they need review again and again!
based on a long term learning:
- our standard programmes fit in a school term,
- we offer different level courses for each age range: introduction and follow-ups, so that you can build a consistent and evolutive curriculum year after year,
- As financial education has a lot to do with behaviour, it takes time to learn, a long term curriculum is the best way to make a difference and enable you to measure the real impact.
appealing and very practical:
- each course contains all kinds of activities (hands-on, art, calculation, brainstorming, singing, stories, cartoons...) to engage different kinds of learners and maximise what children will remember and put in practice,
- they focus on what children can immediately apply,
- they integrate the three levels of financial education: knowledge, skills and behaviour: children don't learn to get rich... but instead they acquire the knowledge to make choices and understand their financial consequences.
flexible:
- each programme consists of modules which can be taught separately according to the available time,
- they can fit in different subjects: either as a subject itself, or in English, social studies, maths or even foreign language lessons: our courses are available in English, Chinese, French and Spanish.
involve parents:
- after each module, parents are given a summary of the key learning points and suggestions on how to help their children apply these new skills. In order to be really efficient, Financial Education starts at home.
