A Research Based Approach to Kids Financial Learning

With children growing up in a digital economy, kids are exposed to financial choices sooner than previous generations. From in app purchases to online subscriptions, kids make choices that affect real money. That’s why financial learning must start young, not optional. The purpose behind 4MQ is to help every child gain lifelong financial confidence.

Why Early Money Education Matters

Kids’ attitudes about money take shape early in life. Their understanding of saving and spending begins long before secondary school. As the national curriculum moves toward money competence, there is a major shift toward financial capability. But parents and teachers need the right tools to bring financial lessons into daily life. This is why 4MQ exists, bringing clear and effective learning to homes and schools.

A Mission Shaped for the Future

4MQ’s approach is built on five core principles:
