I came across the Teaching News Website, http://www.teachingnews.co.uk/, via one of the many RSS feeds I check daily. It was here that I read about The Teachers Building Society <http://www.teachersbs.co.uk/> who have produced a set of podcasts and resources for practitioners.

It is the noticeboard section that is worth a closer look <http://www.teachersbs.co.uk/notice/index.asp>; here visitors will find, among other things...

  • Teacher Talk Podcasts – these contain useful information about financial matters covering...
    • mortgages,
    • savings and
    • many other relevant topics
  • Newsletters - these contain features and articles relevant to people working in education as well as useful updates from the financial world and practical guides about...
    • buying,
    • improving and
    • letting property
  • Articles – A set of interesting articles to help teachers, and others, to manage their money. The Moving Home Checklists – could be a very handy list for those who are moving house in the near future.
  • Green Pages - which includes among other things, a collection of links to environmentally friendly, ecologically aware and ethical websites.
