Who this course is for

The Functional Skills Level 2 Maths course is designed to help learners develop the mathematical skills needed for everyday life, work, and further study. This qualification focuses on applying mathematical concepts to practical, real-world situations, ensuring learners can use maths confidently in professional and personal contexts.

Entry requirements

There are no formal entry requirements for the Functional Skills Level 2 Maths course. However, it is recommended that learners have completed the Functional Skills Level 1 Maths course or have a similar level of mathematical ability. Learners should ideally have a basic understanding of arithmetic and simple algebra.

An initial assessment may be required to determine the learner's current skill level and ensure that the course is appropriate.
