...would there be much high levels of numeracy in this country?
There are so many threads on here about reading and reading levels, and yet so very few about maths, apart from the occasional one concerning times tables.
Why is this?
Do parents just not care about maths, think it is less important? Or is it because schools don't send colour coded maths to do at home so parents don't get competitive about it?
Why is it still socially acceptable for otherwise intelligent people to say they're not much good at maths when they would never dream about saying that about reading?
