F2 Freestylers are on an educational football roadshow – to raise awareness of the importance of numeracy

Millions of Brits regret not taking maths more seriously at a younger age, a study has found.

And that has left 43 per cent admitting they wish they concentrated more on the subject when they were at school.

Others said they wished finances, numeracy and budgeting had been a bigger part of their life at home and school when they were younger to avoid difficulty later on in life.
