Money Week

'Money Week’ is an exciting resource for financial education in Scottish primary schools based on a themed week where every class does some work on issues related to money.

This involves a whole school approach to planning, preparation and delivery, and enables the school to link all aspects of the curriculum to the Week's central theme of developing financial capability.

It is also an opportunity to include visits to the local community and visitors coming into school, including parents, business people and others.

The Money Week resource was produced by the Scottish Centre for Financial Education at Learning and Teaching Scotland.
