My Money Week interactive videos

To help engage pupils in personal finance education, we’ve developed interactive videos to challenge them to make tricky financial decisions.

Each video is broken up into branching scenes, which end with a tough decision where your class can discuss the choices available and decide what should happen next. The consequences of different choices are then explored in the next chapter.

Each video is accompanied by a lesson plan, downloadable at the bottom of this page, to help you implement the videos in class and create discussion around them. All you have to do is display the video using a projector or an interactive whiteboard at the front of the class.

Primary film scenario: Hurrah! The holidays are coming up, but if Ben and Lily want to make sure they have the best time possible they’re going to need to save some money, fast! Using our interactive videos you can challenge your class to help Ben and Lily make all sorts of money decisions in the run up to their approaching holidays.

Secondary film scenario: Elisha, Ravi, Kim and Dylan, AKA ‘The Bailiffs’, have got their first gig! Only problem is that it’s in just a couple of weeks and they’re all strapped for cash. Have they got time to practice? Have they got enough money to promote themselves? In the lead up to the gig, their various financial circumstances are revealed. Your pupils must help them to money decisions that will affect them and the future of the band. In our interactive videos you can challenge your class to help the band make financial decisions in the run up to their fast-approaching gig.
