If you are 19 or over, our GCSE and Functional Skills English and maths courses can help you develop your skills, grow in confidence and achieve your goals.

The courses are available across all levels, so you will be able to study at the level best suited to you. If you have applied to study GCSE with us, depending on your assessment results, we may recommend you study Functional Skills first to help you consolidate your knowledge before starting a GCSE course.

Functional Skills are suitable for fluent English speakers, practical for work and life and they are a gateway to employment and some Access and HE courses.

GCSEs are suitable for fluent English speakers who are working at Level 2. They are an intensive traditional UK school qualification, and are a gateway to employment and Access and HE courses.
