The National Schools Partnership – the London-based organization designed to engage young people, their families, and educators with free teaching resources including digital and physical materials – recently launched a weekly segment of money management topics, dubbed 'MoneySense Mondays.'
As its name suggests, MoneySense Mondays takes place on Mondays as a live broadcast. The segments are delivered by a teacher and a Community Banker and designed for parents to watch with their children. The sessions are split into two lessons; the first 30 mins for children aged 5-8 followed by 30 mins for children aged 8-12.
Moreover, for individuals who cannot make the live broadcast, the National Schools Partnership will make all its videos available afterward on both Facebook and YouTube.
