Typically, people study for 2 years before taking their GCSEs, and exams run only twice a year. With Functional Skills, you can take your exam whenever you feel ready, with exams running 6 times a week, all year round.

Obtaining a level 2 qualification opens a huge number of doors in both education and employment.

  1. Really pleased I chose this site for my functional skils maths level 2 qualification as I really wasn’t sure where to book and my local college was of no use. Thanks for call the help

  2. Did the exam and results back just over a week. A smooth process all the way through and good communication. I don’t like maths so having people that get this and help you through it was a relief. Totally different to school.

  3. The functional skills maths level 2 exam was 2 hours long and had non calucaltor section with a calculator part after. I found the first bit hardest but managed to get 70% overall so it didn’t matter as its just a pass or fail exam so as long as you get like 60% I think this is fine to get the certificate.
