School leaders play a pivotal role in creating equal opportunities for children in primary education. Through their day-to-day understanding of pupils and families, they are uniquely placed to bring together the wider network of support services surrounding the school. This enables them to make decisions that give school teams the space to provide high-quality education and ensure their pupils are genuinely seen and supported. These are the findings of new qualitative research by Impact Centre Erasmus, commissioned by ABN  AMRO Foundation as part of its 25th anniversary year. An important way many school leaders do this is by working with liaison officers who connect schools, families and support services.

– Learning how to handle money also means learning how to handle temptation. This is especially challenging for young people when it comes to in-game purchases. Almost half (46%) cite spending large amounts on items such as Fortnite skins, Robux and FC Points as one of the most common money mistakes. This puts it at the top of the list. Parents, too, rank in-game spending as the number one pitfall, with 50% saying their child often makes this money mistake. These are the findings of research by BUUT, the bank for young people. The findings come at a time when the European Commission is also taking a critical look at the way games entice young people into making digital purchases. This has prompted BUUT, together with streamer Chatmo and neuroscientist Barbara Braams, to highlight ways in which young people can deal with these digital temptations more consciously.
