Bullock Report

The Bullock Report, published in 1975, was a comprehensive review of adult literacy and basic education in the UK. It examined how adults with limited reading, writing, and numeracy skills could be better supported. The report highlighted the importance of accessible education programs, flexible teaching methods, and supportive learning environments to help adults improve essential skills for work and everyday life. Its recommendations aimed to make lifelong learning more inclusive, encouraging government and educational institutions to prioritize adult education and reduce literacy inequalities.
