About This Publication

This is a series of briefing papers summarising the initial phase of the three-year Armed Forces Basic Skills Longitudinal study (AFLS). This study examines the impact of improving literacy, language and numeracy (LLN) skills of Service personnel on their professional and personal development and collectively on organisational performance.

The preparatory Phase 1 of the AFLS has now completed. It reviewed the relevant Service, national and international research literature on the impact of basic skills improvements in relation to retention, trainability, social well-being, the role of organisational culture and the impact of embedding basic skills provision within vocational training. It also examined the Armed Forces' approach to addressing their basic skills challenges.
