The teacher training framework, introduced in September 2007, requires all teachers in the post-16 sector to possess knowledge, understanding and personal skills to at least level 2 in the minimum core for numeracy.

For me personally, this book was a very good read! As i have a dyslexic disability, it was clear and concise making it easier for me to read and digest the amount of information given. It has also given me new insights on how numberacy is used and how i can support my students.
