PM to set out plan to enhance younger Britons’ numeracy in first policy speech of 2023
Rishi Sunak will announce plans for all pupils to study maths up to the age of 18 to tackle innumeracy and better equip them for the modern workplace as he sets out his priorities for the year ahead.
In his first speech of 2023, the prime minister will expand on his ambitions for Britain amid concern from some Tory MPs that he lacks a big vision for the country and could be consumed instead by battling a series of crises around the cost of living, the health service and strikes.
