Recommendation 11

A cross-curricular approach in which aspects of financial education are taught in various subjects across the curriculum helps pupils to understand its relevance in different contexts. It also has the benefit of offering students some form of financial education, whatever their subject preferences may be. This approach, however, can lead to a lack of coherence in what is taught between subjects. A financial education co-ordinator would provide their school with a more coherent programme of study and clarity over curriculum requirements.
