About the event

About Founders4Schools:F4S is a national charity connecting students with industry role models, mentoring, and career insights, with a focus on broadening participation and supporting students from underrepresented backgrounds.

Why Join:Financial literacy is one of the most critical life skills, yet many young people leave school without the confidence or knowledge to manage money effectively. The National Stock Picking Challenge gives students the chance to build practical financial skills and confidence by managing virtual investment portfolios in a fun, gamified competition.

The programme is teacher-friendly and flexible, with all resources provided and optional mentor support from leading finance professionals. It can be integrated easily into PSHE, Economics, or enrichment lessons, offering students a meaningful, applied learning experience without adding extra workload. We’re also working with some brilliant partners, who will be revealed in the session. Don't miss out!
