Effective teaching is the single biggest determinant of student improvement in the school. Teachers not only have a direct impact on student achievement but also student engagement and motivation for learning. What teachers do in the classroom and how they interact with students is vital.

We believe that education provided is only as good as the teacher giving it. Participatory and childcentred education is essential to the provision of effective financial and life skills education. To this end, we invest heavily in training teachers.

We work together with teachers enabling children to develop the knowledge, skills and attitudes they need to succeed in life. Our training ensures teachers can use materials to their best advantage and focuses on making them better teachers in general. We believe that teachers should be beneficiaries of the programme as much as children. We have trained 100s of teachers, internationally, through a global network of hundreds of Regional Master Trainers many of whom work within teacher training institutes.

We are committed to the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child and its prescriptions on education. Teachers participating in our workshops gain practical experience in using active-learning methods, both for social and financial education and for other subjects in their national curriculum. They encounter these same active-learning methods within our manuals.

In this way, our curriculum development and training strategies are aligned.
