SEE HERE I'm curious if ours are this bad? This is truly a terrible result. I teach math in the form of statistics and the one thing I'm quite certain of is that students today do not know basic mathematics as well as students from the era before calculators. Take the calculator away and students don't do math very well. So I wonder if this same phenomenon isn't the reason for the poor British result. I also wonder how our teachers would fare.
