Year 8 Personal Finance Day
36 Year 8 pupils recently enjoyed a day event run by Young Enterprise. The event took place on Wednesday 7th February 2007 and was based on personal economics.
The aim of the day was to give pupils the opportunity to work collaboratively with their peers to:
Help pupils build their self-esteem; Improve their financial capability; Prepare for employment; Allow time for reflection on individual skills and qualities; Practice for job-hunting, writing applications and job interviews; Prepare for working life; Produce personal and family budgets; Tie-in with particular career choices. Pupils worked throughout the day in small groups on a set challenge which involved pupils developing their communication, team building and presentation skills. A great day was had by all!
