As a charity with a strong history and keen desire to promote economic education, we’re incredibly pleased to be able to expand sixth form programme the Econ Club.

The Econ Club aims to inspire and empower the next generation of economists, thinkers, and leaders. This initiative is designed to deepen students’ understanding of economic principles, foster critical thinking, and encourage the exploration of diverse economic perspectives. By integrating engaging webinars, a challenging research component, mentorship opportunities, and an ambassadors programme, we seek to provide a comprehensive and enriching experience that not only broadens economic knowledge but also cultivates skills essential for civic participation and professional success.

Our purpose is to make economics accessible and exciting to 6th-form students, encouraging them to apply economic thinking to real-world problems and to become informed contributors to economic discourse and policy-making. 

Our webinar series serves as the foundation, offering live and interactive sessions with economic experts and thought leaders. Complementing this, the digital mentorship programme connects students with mentors for personalised guidance, deepening their understanding of complex economic concepts. The ambassador programme empowers students to take active roles in promoting economic literacy within their communities, fostering a culture of knowledge-sharing and engagement. Finally, the research challenges offer practical, hands-on opportunities for students to apply their learning, conduct original research, and contribute to the field of economics.

Please sign up your school to be part of this immersive education programme.
