GoHenry, the prepaid debit card and financial education app for 6-18-year olds, called on the Government to make financial education compulsory in all schools from primary age at its Parliamentary Reception last night.Talking at a full event, which took place during Talk Money Week to officially launch the company’s Financial Education Manifesto, Louise Hill, co-founder and CEO of GoHenry, pressed home the need for money lessons to be made available in all schools in England as part of the Government’s upcoming Curriculum Review. Championing the voice of young people, Louise revealed that 84% of kids and teens would like to have more financial education in school and that 68% of 18-year-olds are worried about leaving school without any money skills.Speaking alongside fellow guest speaker OIa Majekodunmi, financial expert @allthingsmoney, Louise pointed to GoHenry’s Financial Education Manifesto, which it launched pre-election, outlining 10 key recommendations* for making financial education work for all young people.These include ensuring that financial education is taught in all schools – not just those that follow the curriculum – from primary through to secondary school. The manifesto also recommends that financial education becomes a statutory part of Personal, Social, Health and Economic (PSHE) with external bodies like MyBnk and RedStart Money having a crucial role to play in delivering these lessons.Commenting at the event Louise Hill, co-founder and CEO of GoHenry, said: “Financial education is not one person’s sole responsibility. But, if I can borrow from Talk Money Week’s ‘Do One Thing’ campaign, let that one thing for the Government be making financial education part of its upcoming Curriculum Review. This is a huge opportunity to aid levelling up by giving every young person in England equal access to crucial money skills – no matter their background, where they live or which school they go to.“Ten years on from financial education being added to secondary school curriculums in England, it’s clear it’s not working. We’re still failing kids and teens on this front
