Financial Literacy Drop Down Day
EC_ResourcesEC_Resources

Financial Literacy Drop Down Day

5 Resources
Drop Down Day Pack - A set of 5 lessons to cover a Drop Down Day (5 hours) all about financial literacy and ethical spending. The Drop Down Day was put together for Year 10 originally, but all the resources are editable and well-differentiated so it could be used with any year group KS4 / KS3 with a tweak or so. The overall theme for the series of KS4 Drop Down Days was ‘Independent Living’, so this is just one in a series of six which ran throughout the year. The day works especially well if you can have a key speaker from the Finance Industry (the school’s finance director will do) to kick off proceedings; just someone to emphasise how important financial literacy is and how it can lead to lucrative careers. Intertwined with the money and independent living skills gained by students throughout the day are reminders of their responsibilities as consumers to spend ethically. There is much focus on young people’s rights and responsibilities throughout the lessons as this was planned to ensure thorough coverage of Citizenship and SMSC too. All these individual lessons have been rated very highly by Tes users and are tried and tested in my own department.
