The issue is calculators. No-one should be allowed to use one until 18.
I tutored a 15 year old girl in maths once - bottom of class. She was top at 13. At 13 she had been bought a calculator. IMO there was a large correlation. The other being her horse riding obsession which her parents over indulged her in.Comment

True. But counting doesn't qualify as maths. And I went to school in a pre-chav (as we know them) world. And I have yet to meet a mathematical pleb. If they were one first, the maths cures them.Originally posted by oracleslave View PostI can do arithmetic but am rubbish at maths.
