Course Overview

Functional Skills Maths puts the subject of Mathematics into the real world, equipping you with the life skills to work with numbers and solve everyday problems. Split into three core topics – number, measure and shape, statistics and probability, you work towards a recognised qualification which at Level 2 is equivalent to a grade 4 at GCSE. Functional Skills in Maths will help you to develop your confidence, learn important skills for everyday activities and improve your job and career opportunities. You can choose to study either in our expert tutor led class lessons on campus at Strode College, or through online tuition.
