Assessor's comments
A very comprehensive resource covering a range of topics such as consumer rights, Income, Banking, Savings, Credit, Debt and Budgeting. It includes very useful information pages on each of these topics and the use of the activities in conjunction with the DVD offers a multi-media approach. Quizzes, word searches, puzzles, role play, case studies, anagrams and structured exercises on payslips and bank statements help to ensure that the resource has a real hands-on approach for students.
