	uin	HL17111
	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 22/07/2019 answer text <p>Education on financial matters helps to ensure that young people are prepared to manage their money well, make sound financial decisions and know where to seek further information when needed. In 2014, financial literacy was made statutory within the national curriculum as part of the citizenship curriculum for 11-16 year olds. Pupils are taught the functions and uses of money, the importance of personal budgeting, money management and the need to understand financial risk. We have also introduced a rigorous new mathematics curriculum, which provides young people with the knowledge and mathematical skills to make important financial decisions.</p><p>An understanding of consumer products and how they are advertised can be important in personal finances. In the statutory relationships, sex and health education guidance, to be implemented in all schools within England from September 2020, it states that pupils should be taught about how advertising is targeted at them, and how they should be discerning consumers of information online. The department has published further guidance on teaching online safety, to support schools in their delivery of online safety content within their curriculum and wider whole school approaches. This guidance is attached and is available here: <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/teaching-online-safety-in-schools" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/teaching-online-safety-in-schools</a>.</p><p> </p> answering member printed Lord Agnew of Oulton question first answered 22/07/2019 11:45:13 answering member 4689 label Biography information for Lord Agnew of Oulton attachment 1 file name HL17111_Teaching_online_safety_in_schools.pdf title HL17111_PDF

	tabling member printed	Lord Hylton
	uin	HL17116
	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 22/07/2019 answer text <p>Our Embassy in Tel Aviv discussed our concerns about the increase in demolitions in East Jerusalem with the Israeli Authorities on 25 June. The nature of these demolitions which took place within an area of the West Bank controlled by the Palestinian Authority is particularly concerning and we continue to monitor the situation closely. We regularly make clear our serious concerns about the situation in East Jerusalem to the Israeli authorities, both bilaterally and in co-operation with EU partners. We are strongly opposed to any attempts to change the facts on the ground in the East Jerusalem. The UK continues to regard Israeli settlements as illegal under international law and an obstacle to peace, and we regularly raise our concerns about settlement activity with the Israeli authorities.</p> answering member printed Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon question first answered 22/07/2019 14:22:36 answering member 4210 label Biography information for Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon
