How was the National Professional Learning Strategy developed?
The MCEETYA working party identified a need to build the capacity of teachers to integrate consumer and financial literacy into the curriculum. The Financial Literacy Foundation brought together a Reference Group to develop a strategy to meet this need. The Group had representatives from State and Territory education jurisdictions, Independent and Catholic School sectors, the Department of Education, Science and Training, and Consumer Affairs and Fair Trading authorities. The strategy was finalised in August 2007.
