This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

The national curriculum for citizenship already states that secondary school students should be taught about the functions and uses of money, the importance and practice of budgeting, income and expenditure, credit and debt, insurance, savings and pensions, financial products and services, and how public money is raised and spent.

You can read the full national curriculum for key stages 3 and 4 here: www.gov.uk/government/publications/national-curriculum-in-england-secondary-curriculum
