What is in the Skills for Life strategy?
The strategy sets out demanding targets for improving the language, literacy and numeracy skills of adults in England. Each learner’s achievement and level of skill can be measured against national targets set out in the Adult Literacy Core Curriculum www.dfes.gov.uk/curriculum_literacy Adult Numeracy Core Curriculum www.dfes.gov.uk/curriculum_numeracy Adult ESOL Core Curriculum www.dfes.gov.uk/curriculum_esol These core curricula describe what should be taught in literacy, numeracy and ESOL programmes. They are supported by training courses for teachers.
