Organised by Lou


Visit to the Bank of England Museum and also choose between two presentations.  We have been previously and their presentations are very engaging.

Pounds and Pence for children aged 7-13 years. ***THIS PRESENTATION IS NOW FULL***

“The Pounds and Pence film covers the history and purpose of money, why prices change and the Bank of England’s role in keeping prices low and stable. Children will enjoy the upbeat style of the film and the humorous scenarios which explain the points in an accessible and entertaining way. Using sheets of new banknotes worth thousands of pounds, children will examine the security features on these genuine notes and be encouraged to play an active part throughout the presentation.”

Keeping on an Even Keel for children aged 13-16 years.
This is aimed at GCSE level and would be suiltable for anyone studying economics or business studies or with a keen interest in monetary policy.  This is NOT a “beginners” level presentation and prior knowledge will be assumed.

“A short film that uses nautical metaphor and animation to explain the Bank’s roles and responsibilities in an accessible, imaginative and entertaining way. The film is divided into seven short modules, which provide a simple guide to the Bank’s monetary policy and financial stability roles. The modules explain why low inflation and a safe and stable financial system matter to the UK economy and how the Bank contributes to achieving them.”

 

There is an overall capacity limit for both of these presentations.  Preference will be given to children in the right age-ranges for each presentation. (further information to come)

Under 7s are still able to go into the museum (which is free of charge)

Please note that there is a £1.50 refundable deposit per person for the presentations (which will be donated to charity in the event that you cancel/don’t attend/don’t do the workshop on the day and your places go unfilled).  This is because the bank reserves the right to cancel a visit if the numbers on the day fall below what was booked.

Please pay by personal PayPal transfer to: events[at]educationista [dot] com
Or, you may also make a personal PayPal payment via www.paypal.me/eventseducationista (please DON’T tick the “paying for goods or services” box)

(If paying by personal PayPal payment, OPT TO PAY OFFLINE, below, and please put your names and what you are paying for on your personal PayPal payment)

If you have successfully sent your booking, a little green message to that effect will appear at the bottom of the page and you’ll get an email from the website.
You’ll receive another email, when your booking is confirmed.

If you pay via the website, that is fine, too, but it will be £1.76 due to PayPal fees.

For those of you also attending the St Paul’s Cathedral visit, it is a 10 minute walk or a short Tube ride between the two.

Bookings

Bookings are either closed for this event OR you are not logged in (you must be logged into the website in order to book)

    Hi there Lou, I can see that the Bank of England is full for 11 year olds but wondered if you have a waiting list for any cancellations ?

    I understand that there may not be.

      I can add you to the waiting list – it is likely to be very short notice, though, because if people drop out, they normally do it the night before.

This Website

This website is purely a booking website. Any home-educator is welcome to use it for free, as long as the event is not-for-profit for them personally.

Adult spaces/tickets:
Please put “adult” in the age box. (Adult ages are not required)

Children’s ages are asked for to enable the organiser to pass on the age-range to the venue/workshop leader. Also, in the case of there being free teacher/adult spaces, these are normally calculated on the child/ren’s age.

Educationista Foundation

We were successful in registering "Educationista Foundation" as a CIO with the Charity Commission.

We'd like to invite any home-educator who is interested in joining in activities or getting involved in the charity itself, to join the facebook group for it, which is here:
facebook.com/groups/EducationistaFoundation.

However, the charity is separate from this website.
(It just uses this website for bookings for ease and because it time-stamps the bookings, which may be necessary for over-subscribed events)

Payments for Events

Payment for events must be made directly to the organiser.
Their PayPal/payment details will be detailed on the event.
If the organiser requests a bank payment (this will be clear on the event itself), then you may request them by email if they are not already known to you.

You are NOT be able to pay via the website PayPal as some of you may have done previously – this is because this attracts PayPal fees which cannot be passed on (following legislation that comes into effect from January 2018).

Your space(s) are not confirmed until payment has been received.

Cancellations/Non-attendance & Refunds

Most venues and attractions need to booked and paid in advance.
Therefore, unfortunately refunds are not normally possible unless your space(s) can be filled.
If you are unable to attend for whatever reason, please let the organiser know as soon as possible. They may they have a reserve/waiting list.
