Our In-School Financial Literacy Programs are designed for senior secondary students in Years 10, 11 & 12.
A full program consists of four x 2-hour modules at Year 10, three x 1.5-hour modules at Year 11 and two x 1.5-hour modules at Year 12, however, the content and duration of each module can be tailored to meet the time availability and timetabling characteristics of each school.
A typical program can look like this -
Year 10
Students at this year level focus on building practical knowledge and skills related to earning money and operating effectively in the the workplace. Topics generally include (but are not limited to):
Workplace Rights and Responsibilities and Fair Work Practices
Fair Pay and Having Difficult Workplace Conversations
Taxes, Levies and Superannuation
Financial Considerations in Starting a Small Business
Year 11
As students start to manage their own income and expenditure on a more regular and independent basis, module content is focussed on the concepts of spending, ownership and debt, including:
Budgeting, Banking and Opportunity Cost
The Real Cost of Owning Stuff
How to Avoid the Debt Trap
Year 12
Before leaving school, Year 12 students learn how to maximise the effect of the money they will earn and to safeguard the assets they accumulate. Modules for final year students focus on:
Options for Wealth Building
Asset Protection
Delivery can take place in either presentation or workshop format.
