Teachers in England are being encouraged to use cartoon videos and other resources to teach children about the dangers of using loan sharks, along with how to manage their money wisely.

MoneySavingExpert.com's Martin Lewis is joining financial education charity Pfeg to launch a new campaign to get schoolchildren talking about money.

Financial education will form a part of the compulsory national curriculum in England from September 2014, it's been confirmed.

Young people are starting adult life with "dangerous gaps" in their money management skills, a study has found.

Schools in some of the country's most disadvantaged areas will be given help to teach financial education.

Financial education should be taught in every further education and sixth form college, a report from the All Party Parliamentary Group (APPG) on Financial Education for Young People says.
