About this course

A Level 2 functional skills maths qualification is the recognised GCSE maths equivalent when employers ask for maths at Grade 4 or above. You'll have an initial assessment to confirm this is the right level for you.

The Functional Skills qualification is intended for anyone wishing to develop their maths and English. You will focus on both the underpinning skills as well as the ability to apply maths and English to different contexts.
