MATHS ANXIETY TRUST
Founder Shirley Conran OBE Hon Fellow UCL
Sister Organisation to Learning Skills Foundation

One in four school leavers cannot do Everyday Maths, according to their exam results. The CBI complains that the cost to their members of remedial maths in the workplace is �1Billion every year.

Why is this? What needs to be done to address it? A major factor would seem to be Math Amxiety which has been medically documented since the late 1950s. Why does Maths Anxiety occur? What can be done about it? What positive action has been taken by the authorities?
