"Not My Bike..."

"Research data shows that in England, about 18% of adults (aged 16–65) have “low literacy proficiency” (i.e. “Level 1 or below”), meaning they may struggle with more complex or unfamiliar texts. This is slightly up from 16.4% in earlier years.

That corresponds to around 6.6 million adults in England alone having very limited literacy skills.

A big concern: while average literacy remained stable, the share of adults at the bottom (lowest proficiency) has increased.

On top of that, participation in adult literacy-learning programmes has dropped significantly over the past decade. For instance, in adult-literacy provision in England the number of learners fell from ≈360,000 in 2018/19 to about 223,000 in 2022/23 — a drop of some 38%."
