Too many young people in Scotland leave school without essential life skills like how to budget, pay taxes or apply for a job.
This lack of preparation for adult life is a fundamental failing of the SNP Government’s handling of our education system.
I’ve brought forward proposals to overhaul how we prepare young people for the future.
My ‘Skills for Life’ plan would ensure everyone gets taught financial literacy and leaves school with an understanding of bills, taxes, mortgages and other crucial elements of adulthood.
