Financial literacy should be mandated in curriculum, teaching staff say

In 2021, 44 per cent of students left Loganlea State High School without plans for work or further study. Today that's just 20 per cent.

The school attributes the success to its financial literacy and wellbeing programs

What's next?
The school and a not-for-profit say financial literacy should be mandated in the national curriculum.

Year 10 students Alyssa Rosario and Cassie Sorenson are already saving for their dream careers as a paramedic and a teacher after completing a financial literacy course.

"We've learned how to save, the difference between wanting and needing stuff, like essentials on what to save for," Cassie said.

She is now saving for university and putting aside cash in an "emergency fund" in case something unexpected comes up.
