Details

These reports outline the evaluation findings from the Multiply programme. Multiply was an adult numeracy programme funded through the UK Shared Prosperity Fund that ran from April 2022 until March 2025. 

The reports contain a comprehensive evaluation of the Multiply programme in relation to:

• impact and effectiveness
• relevance and coherence
• efficiency and sustainability

Alongside the Multiply evaluation, DfE also carried out a programme of adult numeracy randomised controlled trials.
