School Leavers

Save by the Bell is currently in 30 Primary schools across Dundee. Our aim is to extend this project into secondary schools. At present, we do not have collection points in any of the secondary schools in Dundee, but this does not mean that you cannot continue to save as you finish P7.

All our savers can either continue to save through another sibling currently in the primary school or deposit money by online transfer in to DCU Junior Savers account. All Save by the Bell members are Discovery Credit Union Junior Savers and therefore your account will be automatically transferred once the saver leaves primary school and they can continue to save until the age of 16 years. After that, you get a choice to continue as a full member of DCU for an annual fee of £3.50 or withdraw your money and close the account. All savers will be informed of any changes to their account by post.

All savings accounts with a zero balance will automatically be closed at the end of the academic year. Please advise us if you wish to keep the account open.

If you wish to withdraw the savings, you should complete a withdrawal slip and take it to your next Save by the Bell school collection or you can take it to Discovery Credit Union (DCU) Should you require a withdrawal slip or any further information regarding your account then please contact us on 01382 431576 or email your query to: info.savebythebell@dundeecity.gov.uk.

Once the saver has moved to secondary school and the account transferred to DCU junior savers, any queries regarding the account should be forwarded to DCU office on 01382 431572 for any enquiries.
