A review of national numeracy standards has found that too many Australian students are failing to acheive acceptable levels of proficiency.
The Council of Australian Governments commissioned the National Numeracy Review report in July 2006.
The report released today found that by international standards, overall maths achievements by Australian students are good.
But the report says too many students, particular from indigenous backgrounds, aren't meeting acceptable standards.
It cites as a major problem the belief that minimum standards are good enough.
Among its 15 recommendation, is that all states and territories work towards 5 hours per week of maths for primary school students.
It also recommends teachers who are teaching maths out of their area of specialty be given greater support. [ ABC ]
