Young Money – Centre of Excellence in Financial Education
Here at National Sixth Form Centre, we are equipping our students for the next exciting stage of their lives, whether that be in higher education, in an apprenticeship, or in employment. Whichever route they choose to pursue, it is important that they know how to manage their money successfully. Staff are dedicated to supporting all students to develop their financial know-how so that they can embark on their path as financially independent individuals.
Students will receive their Financial Education as a part of their Tutor and Enrichment Programmes. Over the course of two years study at NSFC students will learn about
- Banking
- Budgeting
- Payslips, taxes and National Insurance
- Housing options
- Personal financial safety
- Post 18 career and education options – and their linked earning potential.
- Advice and guidance
The following websites are useful to students (and their Parents/Carers!) in finding information to support financial education:
Prospects – careers information
Life skills – financial and employability skills
Do It – volunteering opportunities
Scholarship Hub – search for university scholarships
