On the Money

This is a very enjoyable resource with a different approach covering finance and enterprise topics through the use of excellent short stories that pupils will identify with and find funny. The activities are good and develop the issues in a variety of ways.

Although teachers notes give suggestions as to how each story would be used, over the four stories, virtually every aspect of personal finance detailed in official guidelines could be teased out and covered in some way. This resource could also be used for secondary schools.
