How England should reform maths education for the age of AI

Maths Horizons was launched in September 2024 to develop evidence, analysis and recommendations about the future of maths curriculum and assessment in England. As an independent initiative, our work is intended to support the Government’s Curriculum and Assessment Review, as well as the wider debates about the future of England’s education system and economy.

Over the last nine months, we have conducted large-scale polling, with nationally representative samples of 2,000 parents, 2,100 students, 2,200 employers and 2,000 employees, as well as more than 31,000 responses from teachers. We have heard from hundreds of experts through interviews and consultation feedback, as well as roundtable discussions and school visits. Building on these insights, Maths Horizons is excited to share its first major publication: “How England should reform maths education for the age of AI”.

Maths Horizons’ vision is to raise standards in maths at every level, from ensuring that students leave education with secure fundamental knowledge, to an ambitious increase in advanced mathematical study. This report offers a blueprint to reform maths curriculum and assessment, which would support the aspiration for England to become one the top-performing countries in the world for maths.
