The aim of these nationally recognised qualifications is to improve maths skills and assist you in day-to-day life and work. Students will share their own understanding of maths and develop the English that everyday numeracy problems are written in.

This course is designed to be taken alongside your ESOL qualification and is particularly suitable for those looking to move onto higher level functional skills or GCSE courses.

You will widen your knowledge of maths and English language and develop the practical skills needed to succeed in further learning, employment and wider society. If English is not your first language and you need to improve your maths skills, this is the course for you!

We have various start dates throughout the year and the course takes up to 20 weeks to complete.
