Notice Information

Notice Title

Multiply 2024-25

Notice Description

The Government wants everyone to have the opportunity to learn and develop the essential skills that they need to succeed at any age. We know that numeracy is universally important for individuals' life chances, and for the United Kingdom's economy as a whole. Multiply aims to see meaningful participation that boosts people's ability to use maths in their daily life, at home and work - and enables adults to achieve formal qualifications that can open doors for them (such as into a job, progression in work, or progression to further study). Poor numeracy skills have an impact on people's ability to function in life and work, as well as their ability to perform domestic and work-based tasks with accuracy and confidence, The pandemic has highlighted additional challenges, such as the ability for parents with low skills to support their children with homework. Improved skills should have a positive impact on family lives and on productivity at work. Interventions should not displace, replace and / or duplicate any existing adult numeracy provision, such as activity funded through the existing Adult Education Budget (AEB) statutory entitlement for maths qualifications or funding for any other projects. Funding must not be used for any activities that are not related to the provision of basic numeracy skills; and/or any activities that the provider would otherwise be able to access free of charge. The vision for adult learners in Sheffield accessing Multiply provision is to provide innovative, high quality, engagement/learning activities that will improve the life chances of Sheffield adults and their families to help them to inspire their future generations. The vision for adult learners in Sheffield accessing Multiply provision is to promote numeracy and meaningful participation/engagement towards the world of Maths and its relevance in everyday life. Successful engagement activities will be appealing to learners.
