You may just wish to increase confidence and know-how for using numbers and calculations in daily life.

Our maths courses range from Entry 1 to Functional Skills Level 2 and include:

  • Bridge to Functional Maths - Entry 1                     
  • Functional Maths - Entry 2
  • Functional Maths - Entry 3
  • Functional Maths - Level 1

We can help you develop the maths skills and level of competence needed to confidently progress with your studies. Some universities will accept a level 2 maths qualification as an equivalent to a GCSE.

We'll support you to achieve more than you thought possible and can help you progress to the next level when you've gained your first qualification with us.
