Alternative Provision - new research project 

Access free teaching resources and help make a difference

We have launched a new research project, expanding the capacity of our LifeSavers programme to provide quality financial education to children in vulnerable circumstances, particularly those with social, emotional, mental health and behavioural support needs.

Thanks to generous funding from the Money and Pensions Service (MaPS), we will work directly with Pupil Referral Units (PRUs) and Behavioural Support Centres (BSCs) to review our existing resources and understand how to effectively adapt our products to serve teachers and children in this context.

If you are working in an Alternative Provision context, including Pupil Referral Units and SEMH settings, we are asking for your help by taking part in this innovative research and pilot scheme. You will have the opportunity to directly input into the expansion of our LifeSavers programme to include tools, resources, and training to meet your needs.

Our aim is to make these learnings available in a public report, contributing important knowledge to the sector and aiding the development of additional support in the future.

The initial research will be limited but, as the project evolves, we plan to create training and reports that will be accessible to anyone interested. Our existing LifeSavers programme is also available for those interested in using our whole school adaptive programme.
