Teaching pupils value of money

Money Schools Week gets underway

Around 800 pupils will be receiving real-life lessons in financial prudence this week.

Now in its second year, Money Skills For Schools Week aims to equip local young people with knowledge they can actually use outside the classroom.

Budgeting, borrowing and saving will be some of the values taught through 'fun and engaging' sessions throughout the week.

It's organised by the charity MyBnk in association with Old Mutual Wealth.

Stewart Perry is from the firm.
