The Money and Pensions Service (MaPS) have developed a series of guides to support professionals working with children and young people, with the aim of improving their financial wellbeing through good quality financial education.
The guides aim to help local authorities and other children’s services staff, working with children and young people in vulnerable circumstances, embed opportunities for learning about money into the support they provide. They set out how financial wellbeing aligns with their wider duties and priorities for children and young people.
There are four guides in total and these constitute guidance for leaders and decision-makers of children and young people’s services in England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.
The guides and toolkit have been informed by consultation with leaders of children and young people’s services, practitioners who work with children and young people in vulnerable circumstances and organisations that represent the voices of children and young people.
