It is a Commonwealth policy objective that all students attain essential numeracy skills. In reality, 30% of 15 year olds do not attain these skills. Alongside this are declining enrolments in mathematics, a trend away from advanced mathematics courses, and an emerging 'skills shortage' in mathematics-related pathways. The MYTEAM project provides new solutions to national problems associated with disengagement, under-participation and underperformance in mathematics and empowers more individuals to aspire to and realise mathematics-related employment opportunities. Addressing such a shortfall in the labour market will have a positive impact on the future economy, the nation's social well-being, and individuals' pathways beyond school.

所有学生都获得基本的算术技能是英联邦政策目标。实际上，15岁的年轻人中有30％无法获得这些技能。除此之外，数学入学率下降，远离高级数学课程的趋势以及与数学相关的途径的新兴“技能短缺”。 MyTeam项目为与脱离接触，参与不足和数学表现不佳相关的国家问题提供了新的解决方案，并使更多的人渴望并实现与数学相关的就业机会。解决劳动力市场如此短缺的问题将对未来的经济，国家的社会福祉以及校外的个人道路产生积极影响。
