What the petition asks
We want a new core subject of Personal Finances for pupils in Years 9 to 11. This should be unassessed. The Prime Minister has said all school pupils in England should study maths to the age of 18. We believe having a Personal Finances subject with real world applications would be more effective.
The Government should make this change to prepare the youth for the future so when they leave education and become an adult they are more prepared.
