What teachers are saying
"Banqer is the best programme we've offered in terms of financial literacy. It's not just about banking, and spending and saving. It goes more into careers and property ownership, taxes and the stock exchange. Students love it, and we love it."
Linda Everett
Head of Faculty for Business,
Long Bay College
"I wanted students to do more than just learn about money — I wanted them to experience it.
Straight away they were hooked.
Banqer gave them the chance to make choices, see consequences, and learn by doing. That’s much more powerful than me just telling them what happens."
Sam Wakerley
Teacher In Charge Economics
Hillcrest High School
"Banqer lines up with what students are going through right now and what they’re about to face. That’s why it works. It’s fun, it’s competitive, but it’s also preparing them for what’s coming next."
Chevez Makan
Head of Pathways & Year 13 Dean
