💡 Word to the Wise

This week’s message is: “A want can feel urgent, but it is not always a need.”

This links to what pupils are learning in PSHCE about needs and wants, saving and making responsible financial decisions. Pausing before buying something can help us protect our savings and make choices based on our priorities rather than pressure.
Would you still want it tomorrow?

💼 Job of the Week: Member of Parliament (MP)

This week, pupils will learn more about the role of an MP and how they represent the concerns and interests of people within their constituency in the House of Commons.
