Failure in basic school lessons haunts adult underclass for life.

Low levels of literacy and numeracy have a damaging impact_______ almost every aspect of adult, _______according to a survey published yesterday, which offers evidence of a developing underclass.

Tests and interviews with hundreds of people born in a______ week in 1958 graphically illustrated the handicap of educational underachievement. The effects________ seen in unemployment, family breakdown, low incomes, depression and social inactivity.

Those who_________ school at 16 with poor basic skills had been employed for________ to four years less than good readers__________ the time they reached 37. Professor John Bynner, of City University, who carried_______ the research, said that today's unqualified teenagers would________ even greater problems because the supply of manual jobs had________ up.

Almost one ____________five of the 1,700 people interviewed for yesterday's report had poor literacy_____________ and almost half struggled ____________ numeracy, a proportion___________ line with other surveys for the Basic Skills Agency. Some could not read__________ from a child's book, and most found difficulty ___________ following written instructions.

Poor readers were twice as likely to be_____________ a low wage and four times_____ likely to live in a household where ________ partner worked. Women in this position were five times_________ as likely to be classified ________depressed, while both_______ tended to feel they had no control _______their lives, and to be less trusting others.

Those ______ low literacy and numeracy skills were seldom involved _________ any community organisation and ________ less likely than others to have voted in a general_______ . There had been no improvement _____ the level of interviewees reporting problems___________ the sample was surveyed _______the age of 21.

Alan Wells, the agency's director, said: "The results emphasise the dangers________ face of developing an underclass _______ excluded people, out of work, increasingly depressed and often labelled _____themselves as failures. There is a________ circle of marginalisation, with the dice________ against these people and their families."

Last year almost half of 11-year-olds _______ primary school without reaching the expected level _______English and mathematics. Mr Wells welcomed ministers' commitment ______ improving basic skills. He said, however, that imaginative programmes ___________ needed, possibly including incentives_______ participating, if the problems______ not to persist_______ the adult population.

Only 300,000 people ________ of more than five million thought to have poor basic_______ take remedial courses each year. Mr Wells said that a "major catch-up initiative" would _________society well as the individuals______________ .

"It is not _______ that 20 per cent have been getting nothing _______of education in the last five years, but maybe 50 years," he said. "The long tail of under-achievement is _______ we have always had."

The survey is_________ of the National Child Development Study, which has tracked 17,000 people at five-yearly ___________since 1958. The current study _____________eight reading and nine mathematical tests of varying difficulty. They included the ability to _______ a Yellow Pages directory to find a plumber and ____________the floorspace of a room.
