Skills for Life • Skills for Life is the national strategy for improving adult
literacy, language and numeracy skills – also known as English and maths
• ‘Up to 7 million adults in England cannot read or write as well as the average 11-year-old: bad news for the adults and bad news for the national economy. People with poor literacy, language or numeracy skills are less productive at work, earn less and are more likely to suffer from ill health and social exclusion.’
(Skills for Life: The national strategy for improving adult literacy and numeracy skills Focus on delivery to 2007)
