Functional Skills qualifications are designed to enable students to develop confidence and fluency in maths and English. They focus on both underpinning skills as well as the ability to apply maths and English to different contexts. They equip students with the practical skills to get the most out of education, work and everyday life and to help them function more confidently, effectively and independently.
