What are FUNCTIONAL SKILLS, AND WHY ARE THEY IMPORTANT?
Functional Skills are essential qualifications in Maths and English that improve employment prospects, open doors to higher education, and support career advancement. Level 2 Functional Skills qualifications are accepted as GCSE equivalents and are often a minimum requirement for job roles, university applications, and apprenticeships.
Our Entry Level exams (Levels 1-3) are ideal for learners beginning their journey in Maths and English. This foundational level helps build confidence and fundamental skills necessary for everyday life and further education.
