The Actuaries Institute has launched its latest Public Policy Statement, titled 'Mastering Mathematics for Australia’s Future'.
The Statement, developed by Martin Mulcare with a team of actuaries, outlines that Australian students’ aspirations and their awareness of the value of science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) skills and the breadth of STEM careers is declining because they don’t understand how maths is relevant to everyday life.
The Statement provides public policy recommendations that will lead to more students studying maths, and at higher levels. It acknowledges education policy is complex but says Australians are falling behind on national and international learning benchmarks.
Ahead of the Statement’s release, Martin spoke on the Actuaries Institute Podcast with Margarita Psaras, David Barnes (both members of the Institute’s Revitalising School Maths Working Group) and Clare Hughes (Public Policy and Practice Excellence Advisor at the Institute) to discuss the key points in the statement.
