Make £5 Grow is a fun and engaging project designed to inspire primary school pupils to explore their entrepreneurial potential while learning important financial skills.
Through this initiative, children are given the opportunity to develop a small business, starting with just £5. They are encouraged to think creatively, work together, and make important decisions that will help their business grow. Along the way, they gain valuable experience in managing money, budgeting, and planning.
This hands-on experience not only draws out the children's enterprising skills but also equips them with essential financial knowledge that will serve them throughout life. Whether they’re brainstorming product ideas, learning about profit and loss, or marketing their creations, children are immersed in the real-world challenges and rewards of entrepreneurship.
For parents and educators looking to guide their children through this exciting journey, Virgin Money provides a comprehensive set of resources. Visit the Make £5 Grow Resource Hub for useful lesson plans, activities, and tips that support every step of the project.
