Corleone, finance enters high school at the students' request
How do you manage your savings? And how do you recognise a financial scam before losing money? These are questions posed by students that gave rise to the new path at the high school...
The IISS "Don Giovanni Colletto" high school in Corleone has launched a new economics and finance-focused educational program. The initiative aims to provide students with practical knowledge on managing savings, recognizing financial scams, and making informed decisions about money. A technical-scientific committee, including teachers, banking representatives, and University of Palermo professors, will oversee the project.
The program was developed in collaboration with Alleanza Assicurazioni, which will cover costs and provide a scholarship for top-performing students. The move addresses a gap in financial education in Sicily, where the Edufin Index 2025 shows a score of 54, below the national average of 56.
