Aflatoun Concept Aflatoun concept is about balance of social and financial education and the curriculum is inspired by this thought. The concept is further broken down into five recurring pedagogical themes referred to as the Five Core Elements: Personal understanding and exploration Through a participatory process, children will be facilitated by trained teachers as supported by ICS to investigate their own personal values through exploration of citizenship ideas and ongoing interaction with peers. They will also explore financial ethics and learn the importance of balancing financial skills with the judgment to use these skills responsibly. Rights and responsibilities Through a participatory process, children will be trained by trained teachers as supported by ICS to learn about interdependent rights outlined in the UNs CRC (1990). They will learn how responsibilities compliment rights and what their responsibilities are towards themselves, others, their community and the environment. Under this component, parents, teachers, school management committees will also be trained so that they are able
to create enabling environment for realization of child rights to social and financial education. Savings and spending Financial empowerment hinges not only on constructive personal value systems, but also on specific, practical skills. Under this component, children will be trained by trained teachers as supported by ICS to learn the basics of saving and spending money in a responsible manner. Planning and budgeting Financial empowerment is achieved when children use their knowledge and skills to maximize their economic choices. Children will therefore be taught how to plan their savings and spending and how to budget their money. Child enterprise Under this component, children will be taught to learn and view themselves as active participants in and shapers of their community. Through managing community activities or entrepreneurial ventures children will experience how they can increase their wealth while having a positive impact on their community.
