*This involves an expanded definition of literacy, e.g. financial, health, reading, writing, media and digital literacy. This definition may evolve to address a changing community and world. The focus will remain on an acquired ability to handle information, to express ideas and opinions, to make decisions and solve problems regardless of the subject matter.
