I was having am interesting discussion with a friend last night who has quite a successful You Tube channel over in America about school curriculum and he asked a valid question.
Should finance and all things money related be taught in secondary schools as part of the curriculum? Should more 'real world' lessons be taught in secondary schools? Is now the time to give the school curriculum a total refresh to bring it bang up to date with the world today?
On a personal level I find it staggering that when I was on school for example, you spent more time learning Shakespeare than learning how to budget accordingly. Also adding letters together in algebra, which I've yet to find a real world use for.
Thoughts?
