A Glasgow school has been given special recognition for its pupils' dedication to learning essential money skills.EducationIn an initiative which engaged with people from the local community, financially-savvy youngsters built their knowledge and skills by handling real-life financial skills.The project was led by Danielle Reynolds, the school’s financial champion and head teacher John O’Donnell.
Danielle said: “Taking part in the Young Enterprise Centres of Excellence programme has allowed our pupils not only to take part in high-quality Financial Education lessons but also allowed them to develop their entrepreneurial skills by taking part in a range of exciting projects. "It has been wonderful for all staff involved to see the children's enthusiasm when learning about money management topics which will not only benefit them now but also in the future.”
John added:"There was nothing more rewarding than having our pupils express their new Financial Education knowledge and how this will make a difference in their current life and future lives.”
