Their task is to stick to the budgets of each household, whilst navigating financial challenges such as pregnancy, a new car, a brother in debt, carer’s allowance, lodgers and much more! This is a fun lesson and culminates in a video bingo game about how different levels of income are managed by UK citizens. Best for KS4/5 but nothing unsuitable for KS3.
Financial Exploitation - 2 HOURS for new 2026 RSHE guidance (see lesson plan included for details) - In this double lesson students will explore online scams, with particular regard to financial exploitation and money laundering.

They will discover how money laundering works, what happens to the victims, the penalties, and how criminals operate to trick people and avoid detection. The lesson includes a detailed, editable PowerPoint, accompanying worksheets, information pack, clip tasks, analysis tasks, creative tasks and much more. Suitable for KS3 or KS4. Includes detailed lesson plan.
Resilience, Wisdom and Being Tough PSHE (student loans, pensions, rent and mortgages) - Brand new, 2 hour lesson which may be one of the most important lessons we’ve ever produced.

The topics are all off-line subjects for this lesson, and those covered are; mortgages and the housing market, university and alternatives, pensions and their importance, attitude and entitlement and credit scores. The lesson aims to equip students with essential knowledge they need and the inspiration to be tough, resilient, wise and future-proof.
Best suited to KS5 (or maybe Year 11) Students will complete a wide range of tasks, literacy-based, creative presentation, case studies, analysis and clip tasks. Everything is editable and easy to just pick up and use. All information need is included.
