When is money introduced at school?
Grade 1: identify coins. Grade 2: make amounts up to £2/€2. Grade 3: make change, compare prices.
Why is money maths difficult?
It combines symbol recognition, decimal addition and decomposition logic. Start with real coins (role-play shopkeeper) before worksheets.
