Our mission is to provide everyone with the tools for lifelong money confidence.

FT Flic will promote financial literacy where it is needed most to have significant, sustainable societal impact.

The charity will work at the grassroots level but will also seek to influence the macro policy while building a platform of homegrown and partner content that can be leveraged globally for maximum effect.

Financial resilience can be boosted enormously by understanding how money works in everyday life. Our initial focus will be on the UK, though we aim to expand globally over time. The wealth gap in the UK and around the world has been widened by the Covid pandemic, exacerbating deprivation for many, adding to the challenges facing young people and weighing disproportionately on women.

  • Case Study

    Beacon School – City of London Academy, Shoreditch Park, London

    Shoreditch Park has now completed their third year of delivering and evaluating the FT FLIC curriculum.

  • 103 Outside of the UK: 103 schools 3 Beacon Schools
  • 63 Regions not specified: 63 schools

Looking ahead to 2027

906 schools is a number we’re proud of. But there are over 3,500 secondary schools in England alone, and we’re just getting started.

By 2027 our ambition is to double our Beacon school programme, expanding full curriculum delivery and longitudinal evaluation to at least 50 schools across the UK. More data means stronger evidence, and stronger evidence means a more compelling case for financial literacy as a statutory right in every secondary school.

Every school we reach is another generation of young people who understand money before the world asks them to manage it.

  • 11 New UK regions targeted
  • 50 We are increasing our Beacon School count to 50!
  • XX Another stat to go here
