Empowering Students with Financial Know-how

04 Jul

In today's world, financial literacy is an essential life skill. At Eastbrook School we are committed to equipping our students with the knowledge and tools they need to navigate the complexities of personal finance. Our curriculum focuses on practical skills such as budgeting, saving, and understanding credit.

We also explore the art of negotiation, teaching students how to advocate for themselves in various financial situations. These skills are not just about managing money; they're about empowering students to make informed decisions, plan for their future, and achieve their financial goals. By fostering financial literacy, we are helping our students build a solid foundation for a lifetime of financial well-being.
