Class Futures: Darren Collins on Financial Education and His Journey to Becoming Teacher of the Year

How Darren Collins Found His Calling in Financial Education, What Inspires Him as a Teacher, and the Path to Winning the 2021 Personal Finance Teacher of the Year Award

In the latest episode on Class Futures, I spoke to Darren Collins who teaches financial studies at The Sittingbourne School in Kent. He caught my interest on Twitter when I saw that he had scooped Interative Investor’s Personal Finance Teacher of the year award. Financial education is an important topic and one I wanted to explore. He reveals his route in to teaching, what inspires and motivates him, and how he won the award.
