Looks like Personal Finance Education is here to stay ? Cambridge ...

18 May 2012

Whilst it?s not yet set in stone, the prospect of Personal Finance Education staying in the National Curriculum is looking more likely than it did a year ago when the Coalition came into power. Of course, we?ll have to wait for the National curriculum and PSHEe reviews to be complete before we know for sure.

Helping children develop a responsible relationship with money is one of the pillars of Personal Finance Education. The All-Party Parliamentary Group (APPG) on Financial Education for Young People is debating this at the moment and wishes to ensure that young people are equipped to make informed financial decisions

Justin Tomlinson MP, the APPG chair, met with the Prime Minister to discuss the inquiry report. This report follows a UK wide intensive inquiry into the level of financial education in primary and secondary schools.

David Cameron MP showed his commitment and?said he was?keen to support the main thrust ? that financial edcuation should be included in both maths and personal, social, health and economic education (PSHEe). There has also been a debate on the floor of the House of Commons where Nick Gibb MP (the Schools Minister) said that the Government is supportive and that it should be part of maths and PSHEe.

We must now wait and see if he is as good as his word when the National Curriculum and PSHEe reviews are completed.? The new National Curriculum is due to come into?force in 2014.
