IfL calls for ambitious strategy to eliminate illiteracy
Responding to the OECD's 2013 survey of adult skills, the Institute for Learning’s chief executive, Toni Fazaeli, said, “This report presents a blunt wake-up call for everyone in the skills and employment arena. It is particularly sad to see that England is one of only three countries where literacy proficiency among 16 to 24-year-olds is lower than that of the wider 16–65 population. The nation needs young people with higher levels of skills entering the labour market, not lower levels, to drive our economy forward. Trained and qualified maths and English teachers in further education have a central role in helping to turn this unacceptable situation around.
