About Our Programme
City Pay it Forward, in partnership with CityA.M. and leading institutions across the City of London institutions, is supporting primary schools across Greater London to deliver high-quality financial education to Year 6 student.
We believe that early education plays a vital role in shaping lifelong attitudes toward money. Research shows children start forming financial habits by age seven.

Every eligible state-funded primary school in Greater London that completes the programme will receive an unrestricted £1,000 grant.
Full details, including our three-part Programme and accompanying teacher training materials, can be found in the campaign portal. For further guidance, please refer to the FAQs and Terms and Conditions. We advise Form Teachers to consult their Senior Leadership Team (SLT) before engaging with this programme.
