financial education for primary schools

LifeSavers - values-based Financial Education programme for Primary Schools

LifeSavers provides trusted resources that engage children of all backgrounds and abilities with money lessons. Our suite of trusted resources includes ready-to-teach lessons, activities and digital tools that align with your existing curriculum.

Work with us to make sure your school is equipped to deliver meaningful financial education that benefits children for life. No child should miss out on the essential education they need to thrive as adults. That’s why we provide LifeSavers to primary schools across the UK for free, thanks to the generosity of our funders.
