I AM
a big believer in personal finance education. The more financially aware children are when they leave school at 16 or 18, the better prepared they are to face up to the myriad of loan sharks, scammers and spinners of cryptocurrency financial miracles that will come their way.
It’s why I recently spent a
Sunday judging entries for Interactive Investor’s
Personal Finance Teacher of the Year Awards.
What struck me reading through the excellent shortlisted entries was the imagination, creativity and passion of all the teachers. So, to the winners of the primary school and secondary school teacher awards, a massive congrats.
Yasmeen Abbas, St Silas Church of England Primary Academy, Blackburn – you are a personal finance teaching star. The same goes to Emma Baker, who teaches at Caldicot School in Ysgol-Cil-y-Coed in Monmouthshire. Winners in so many ways.
