Musselburgh Grammar School, Edinburgh
Runner up, 2008
School award for most innovative approach to PFE
Musselburgh Grammar School has developed a fun and interactive approach to PFE, focusing on the realities of managing personal finances for families. Students are given ‘prop bags‘ which contain information on managing the budget of their ‘virtual family‘, in a ‘Game of Life’-style approach, that takes them right the way through to their ‘virtual retirement’.
The judges were impressed that this approach was fun and engaging for students, while maintaining strong curriculum links.
