In early January 2023, the UK Government announced plans to make post-16 mathematics education compulsory to equip everyone with the skills needed in a world increasingly shaped by data and statistics. But does this add up in practice?

Given the struggle to recruit maths teachers, as identified by the National Foundation for Educational Research, and a general anxiety about mathematics amongst young people, this panel discussion will explore whether the real solution to better education outcomes is to be found amongst cultural factors.

Does the culture of school education in England need to change, and who is responsible for this? Are we reliant upon the state, or do local communities, home culture and other members of society have a role to play, as we strive for a more sustainable education that involves the flourishing of all? Join us to discuss these questions with a panel of expert speakers.
