They explained about the different denominations of currency we use, and the special notes used by banks including the one hundred million pound note! (See pic on slide 10) In a previous role, Victoria was the chief cashier and her signature is still on £5 and £10 bank notes. They also explained how the Bank of England hopes to tackle soaring inflation and reduce it back to 2% by 2024 by manipulating interest rates for borrowers. ### Bank of England Assembly Slides Bank of England Assembly Slides 20.98 MB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/seaton-valley-federation/files/documents/Victoria_Cleland_Presentation_-_Astley_Community_High_Schoolv2.pptx) [SVHS](https://svf.org.uk/news/tag/svhs) [ Mental Health Tip](https://svf.org.uk/news/2023-07-14-mental-health-tip) [Fun and Creativity at Seaton Delaval Hall ](https://svf.org.uk/news/2023-07-24-fun-and-creativity-at-seaton-delaval-hall) ![Seaton Valley Federation](https://files.schudio.com/seaton-valley-federation/images/logo/SeatonValley_Logo(2).png) #### Seaton Valley Federation Prospect Avenue Seaton Delaval Northumberland NE25 0FW 0191 2371505 #### Useful Links: - [News](https://svf.org.uk/news) - [Contact Us](https://svf.org.uk/contact-us) - [Events](https://svf.org.uk/events) - [Vacancies](https://svf.org.uk/job-vacancies) #### More Links: - [Calendar](https://svf.org.uk/calendar) - [School Email](https://sites.google.com/achs.svf.org.uk/launchpad-selection) - [My Child at School](https://svf.org.uk/my-child-at-school) - [Term Dates](https://svf.org.uk/term-dates) #### Social Media - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/Seaton-Valley-Federation-of-Schools-103527542434937) - [X](https://twitter.com/@seatonvalleyfed) - [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/seatonvalleyfed) © Copyright 2018–2026 Seaton Valley Federation School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://svf.org.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
