We're a charity with one clear goal: to help the next generation achieve better financial futures by educating primary school children about how money works.

Year 6 are currently enjoying a money workshop from @RedSTARTeducate at @landg_group today. They are playing games to earn money, make investments and earn interest. Through this, they are learning all about borrowing as well as risk and reward.

We are delighted to be able to share not only our fantastic Reception activities, but to also provide each child with a copy of Save Your Acorns, to remind them about saving at home.

Great staff launch at @ALMAPRIMARY Yesterday! Year 1 and Reception teachers were really excited about being part of the programme. Everyone was thrilled about the banking app, with lots of comments on how great the design looks!! 😁⭐

[RedSTART Educate @RedSTARTeducate]

Lovely day up at @PIC yesterday, great to meet with the team! We spent the day finalising our approach for upcoming 23/24 academic year.

Everyone at RedSTART is looking forward to delivering workshops and school based activities as schools begin their new academic year.

We repeated this survey at the end of the summer term and will be keen to see the extent that the responses have already changed, and continue to change over time.

[RedSTART Educate @RedSTARTeducate]

More than 3,700 primary school children aged between 6 – 8 from 45 schools in underprivileged rural and urban areas across England and Scotland were surveyed on a range of age-appropriate money-related questions including money management, financial aspirations and goals.

[RedSTART Educate @RedSTARTeducate]

· Across the board they gave low responses in terms of thinking about value for money (25%), or first establishing if they could wait or needed the item now (30%), with 14% saying they’d just buy it.
