The Primary National Strategy document was launched in the
UK in May 2003 by
Charles Clarke, the
Secretary of State for Education. The then-existing National Numeracy Strategy and National Literacy Strategy were taken under the umbrella of the Primary National Strategy.
In October 2006 the frameworks for teaching literacy and mathematics were "renewed" and issued in electronic form as the ''Primary Framework for literacy and mathematics''.
