Andorra Endavant Presses Government on School Financial Education Rollout

The opposition group demands updates on implementation amid the new school year, including curriculum details and timelines for launching the program across Andorran education systems.

Key Points

  • Nearly a year after General Council approval on Oct 9, 2025 (24-3 vote), opposition seeks implementation details.
  • Questions cover starting grade levels, content, collaborations, and workshops for other education systems.
  • Noemí Amador urges clarity as 2026-2027 school year begins, emphasizing skills like budgeting, debt, saving, and taxes.
  • Financial education seen as key for responsible decisions, autonomy, and economic future.

Andorra Endavant has asked the government for specifics on rolling out financial education in Andorran classrooms, nearly a year after the General Council approved its proposal.

The opposition parliamentary group submitted the questions as the 2026-2027 school year begins. It seeks details on steps taken since the council's approval on 9 October 2025—passed with 24 votes in favour and three against from the PS—and whether the programme will start this academic year.

Key issues raised include the starting educational level, planned content, and potential collaborations with specialised entities or sector professionals. The group also wants to know about any workshops or targeted sessions to extend the training to students in the country's other education systems.

General Council member Noemí Amador stressed the need for clarity now that classes are underway. "The government committed to implementing this almost a year ago after the General Council's approval," she said. "We want to know where things stand and, above all, when this training will reach our young people."

Amador described financial education as more than money management: it provides tools for responsible decisions, fostering autonomy and a strong economic future. She pointed to essential skills like handling budgets, understanding debt, saving, investing, banking operations, taxes, and insurance.
