Start off exactly where you should
1. Determine your Initial Level
Before enrolling on a Functional Skills maths or English course, we recommend completing our bespoke, market-leading initial assessment. This identifies the level you are currently working at and recommends the most suitable course for you to enrol on. However, if you already know you need to pass a Level 2 exam, you can skip the assessment and enrol directly on the Level 2 course.

To start the course, it is recommended to complete the subject knowledge assessment. The subject knowledge assessment assesses your ability across the whole range of topics across the course. Based on your results, the course will create you an individual revision plan!
The Personal Learning Plan was a life saver!
Forget the revision guides and workbooks, the functional skills maths course is far more useful. All the practice and revision videos you could hope to see and well structured to make planning and timing revision easier. It is a bit pricey but worth the bucks 🙂

Functional Skills Maths Course
Our functional skills maths level 2 course includes everything you need to pass your qualification. The maths curriculum consists of 3 units: using numbers; common measures, shapes, and space; and handling information and data. The online course breaks down each unit into subtopics, and automatically tracks your progress so you know how much you have yet to complete. The functional skills maths level 1 course similarly prepares you for your level 1 qualification. The units are the same as for level 2, but the subtopics differ. The course guides you through the curriculum so that the information is in consumable chunks.
A functional skills maths course makes a huge difference to your revision. As well as practice questions throughout, there are exam-style topic tests at the end of each section to simulate the real thing. Your attempts are marked immediately and if you aren’t sure where you went wrong, there are written and video solutions for every question. At Pass Functional Skills, we know there is more to your qualification than just the content. The majority of our learners are completing their qualifications outside of education and juggling study with other responsibilities. Our online course takes this into account, with the system tracking how many hours of revision are left until you are ExamReady, based on your automatically calculated current level.
Make your revision work for you with a functional skills maths course!
