In support of this reality, the reports of the Edufin Committee give us the image of a school that considers Financial Education important to complete the training of students, but at the same time asks to be accompanied: with targeted training, adequate materials and tools, paths that gradually involve all students. These dynamics are also reflected in international comparison: the experience of other countries offers valuable insights on how to consolidate financial education in schools.
