About this course

Free Functional Skills Maths Level 2 in Corby. Classes run at CKW Academy. You'll have an initial assessment to confirm this is the right level for you, and your programme is planned around your starting point and goals. The course covers the maths skills employers and colleges ask for, from working with numbers and percentages to interpreting data and solving problems. At 75 hours, it's a focused full-time daytime commitment. A Level 2 functional skills maths qualification is the recognised GCSE maths equivalent when employers ask for GCSE grade 4 or above.

What you could study next
