Maths is not numeracy in the same way English is not grammar&spelling.
Numeracy fueld maths
Maths is beyond numeracy
Maths can be completed without numeracy (oft with aids eg. calculator)
Financial literacy is yet another field related to but not the same as numeracy or maths

@Miss_M_Maths @ehuttley FWIW the big barrier for younger students is why do we replace y1 and x1 but leave y and x
Multiple colours of pen help identify which to sub in and which to leave
Once the notation is not scary they'll be fairly happy
