About the National Numeracy Challenge programme
Improve your everyday maths with the National Numeracy Challenge
The Challenge is an online learning resource to help you check and improve your numeracy – the maths you use in daily life and at work, like managing your money, working out measurements or understanding percentages, rather than algebra or trigonometry.
However you feel about maths, you can use the Challenge to:
- Quickly check your everyday maths skills
- Increase your confidence with numbers
- Learn online and improve your skills
- Find out your current level, your strengths and weaknesses, and work towards the Essentials of Numeracy
- Improve your confidence and skills in your own time and space so you can prepare to take a formal qualification like Functional Skills.
