CBSE is going to explore the scope for introducing financial literacy in CBSE syllabi

CBSE is going to explore the scope for introducing financial literacy in CBSE syllabi. The committee appointed by CBSE argued that while subjects like human rights, environmental issues and disaster management have been included in the school curriculum, financial literacy is yet to be included in the school and college curriculum and thus has decided to explore its introduction in CBSE. Insurance is definitely going to be a major part of this course.

We in IFI have been pursing this as one of the project.

“Introduction of Insurance as a subject in Secondary Schools all over the country.

Our representations to the following;
Minister HR, Govt of India (Mr. Kapil Sibal)
Chief Minister, Delhi (Mrs. Shiela Dikshit)
Director of Education, Delhi
+Many others have resulted in building up of public opinion in favor of this decision.

Millions of students passing out of our schools will be in a position to appreciate the importance of insurance.

The contribution of IFI(Insurance Foundation of India) needs appreciation.
