Tax Matters - For age 11-19yrs

HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) has revamped its online resource for teachers, Tax Matters, for the new school year.

The free resource - for Personal, Social, Health and Economic education (PSHE), Business Studies and Citizenship teachers of pupils aged 11-19 - contains three modules:

  • Income Tax
  • National Insurance
  • Tax and Society.

Using fun, interactive features such as videos, quizzes and games, it aims to help secondary school pupils gain an understanding of how tax is raised, what the main taxes are, and what they pay for.

The Tax Matters website includes a Teachers' Area with accompanying, ready-made lesson plans for each module for both Key Stage 3 and Key Stage 4 pupils - all packed with ideas for using Tax Matters with students.

The Tax Matters Teachers' Area now includes:

  • additional sample lesson plans;
  • lesson plans divided into clear sections. e.g. starter, main and plenary sessions, so teachers can create lessons tailored to their needs;
  • fully downloadable videos and images; and
  • clearer signposting of materials to appropriate Tax Mattersage group/key stages.

All of the materials are available free by visiting:

Your Justice Your World

Your Justice Your World is a comprehensive educational resource to help young people from 7 to 16 understand the justice system. It has
been mapped very closely to the latest Citizenship and PSHE curricula,
and extensive support for teachers is provided throughout.

The activities in both the 7–11s and the 11–16s sections of the site are situated in a fictitious but realistic UK town, Crownford Rise. The town is populated by a cast of characters who all have dealings with the law as part of their daily lives.

Students interact with their stories and are invited to consider the dilemmas, discuss the issues and voice their opinions on a range of situations covering aspects of criminal, civil and family law.
