I would like to think that day has arrived but I note the noble Lord’s comments.

My Lords, does my noble friend agree that whenever it comes to an issue that needs to go into the national curriculum we always have our own hobby horse, and then another great cohort of us tells us that the curriculum is too crowded? Will my noble friend make sure, if we are going to take this on, that it is integrated into maths lessons?

It will be covered in terms of some financial fluency in maths lessons but I think it is going to be more integrated into citizenship.
