The level of mathematical knowledge which you would have acquired up to lower primary is not sufficient for you to be able to function effectively in later life. Besides, that, there is no differentiation between the subjects studied at upper primary and the proposed career plan of the pupil. If, later on in life, the pupil wanted to study science, or medicine, or architecture or engineering, or a host of other subjects, it would be too late to start teaching basic mathematical skills.

The best is to have a college degree and be a math major. Many math teachers do not have degrees in math, however, my personal opinion is that formal math education is a big plus (pun intended) for math teachers. Some math teachers have computer science backgrounds. In many cases, teachers who want to teach math without a math degree need to pass a test to do so. So if you want to be a math teacher, go to college and major in math! Then you also have to get a teaching credential. Some schools have combined math bs and teaching programs.
