Literacy and numeracy information

Most jobs have a reading, writing or numeracy component, yet a number of people struggle in these areas.

Whether schools students or adults in the workforce, people who have difficulty with literacy or numeracy often need help from outside organisations, as well as learning tools, to help them improve these skills.

In this section you will find information on a range of topics, including literacy and numeracy requirements for NCEA, and what organisations can help people who have low literacy or numeracy skills.
