Case Study No. 21: Money matters: a case study in financial capability

This short case study (4 pages) describes how a Pupil Referral Unit, using the context of personal finance education was able to, in the words of the teacher involved ‘stimulate and engage even the most 'switched off' student’. This was done by developing a module of work based on the students’ stated needs, and involving financial organisations and advice services working in the community. It will be of interest to those planning a similar event, especially when considering how best to involve a range of financial organisations and advice services.
