During his term as prime minister, Heath saw to the decimalization of the British currency. He introduced higher charges on basic services such as education and medication, while raising the maximum school age to 16. He unsuccessfully tried to reduce the power of the unions. Unemployment rose rapidly during his first two terms of office but gradually declined in the later two years.
