Introduction to Functional Skills in Newcastle
The Functional Skills Level 2 qualification is a flexible and practical alternative to GCSEs, equivalent to a GCSE Grade C or Level 4. Approved by Ofqual, this qualification is widely recognised by employers and educational institutions, providing a pathway to job roles, apprenticeships, and university courses. It is particularly beneficial for those aiming to enter professions like policing, nursing, and teaching, which are in demand in Newcastle’s growing sectors.
One of the key advantages of Functional Skills is the year-round availability of exams, allowing you to fit learning around your schedule. The focused content makes revision more manageable compared to GCSEs, which is ideal for learners balancing work or family commitments. Newcastle, with its vibrant student scene at Newcastle and Northumbria universities, as well as its expanding job market, offers plenty of opportunities for individuals to enhance their Maths and English skills through Functional Skills. This qualification is an essential stepping stone for both personal and professional growth in the city.
Level 2 Courses
Depending on your preferences, you can access the course via colleges in Newcastle, or you can opt for distance learning. Many students take their Functional Skills qualifications alongside other courses at institutions like Newcastle College. However, we understand that you may have other commitments and responsibilities, which is why distance learning is a great option. The online courses allow you to work from the comfort of your own home – or a café on Grey Street – and adapt the learning around your daily life, whether that involves work or family.
The Functional Skills qualifications are Ofqual approved, and they are the perfect addition to enhance your CV, increase your employability, and help you stand out in Newcastle’s competitive job market.
