Financial Literacy – Tick by Kenny Emson

What are Switched On toolkits?

SWITCHED ON toolkits are schemes of work designed for PSHE lessons at Key Stage 3 and 4.

Each scheme begins with an engaging audio play designed to spark conversation and develop understanding of the topic.

What is included in this toolkit?

• Tick by award winning playwright, Kenny Emson (8 minute audio play)
• Four hours of lesson plans with clear learning outcomes
• Printable student workbook
• *New* adapted student workbook suitable for remote learning
• Guidance for teachers
• A useful list of organisations offering support and advice with finances

What happens in the play?  

The protagonist, Ben (18), finds himself in financial difficulty after trying to keep up with his friends. The play explores the consequences of his decision to borrow money from a short term loans company. The exercises in this toolkit guide students to explore their own solutions to some of life’s harder questions in a safe and responsible way. Students will learn about debt, loans and money management.
