This is a useful resource containing a template detailing the typical expenditure of a university student. It comprehensively covers the types of outgoings a student may have (tuition fee, rent, utility bills, food, entertainment etc.). This would be suitable for KS3, KS4 and sixth form classes either as part of a PSHE lesson, a form time activity or for use in a widening participation session. As the expenditure is left blank, learners are invited to estimate the student’s costs in each area and come up with a figure for the overall expenditure. This activity lends itself well to collaborative learning as it can be completed in pairs or in groups and provides students with a realistic idea of the costs entailed with studying at university.
