Who is this course for

The course is for learners wanting to improve their maths skills without the pressure of an exam. This is for learners who do not have a Level 2 Maths qualification or GCSE C or 4 and above.

What are the entry requirements

Anyone wishing to enrol on this course will need to undertake an assessment session prior to the course starting to ensure that this is an appropriate course for them and that they understand the course requirements.

What will I be learning

The course will include using maths in practical situations, which incorporates different aspects including:
Number
Measures, Shape and Space
Handling Data
This will also include non-calculator and calculator methods.
The course follows the functional skills syllabus. However, learners can be working towards topics that are suitable for their ability.

How will I be assessed and supported

At DALS, we use an Individual Learning Plan (ILP) to set and review targets and provide feedback, enabling continual reflection and evaluation throughout the course. Learners will also receive verbal and written feedback on marked work. Learners will use their ILP to help track and monitor their own progress towards set goals, to support personal development and achievement.
At enrolment, it is important that you tell us if you have a learning difficulty or disability and require support. Learners declaring a support need will be referred for an assessment. If an enhanced support need is confirmed, a Support Package will be offered, to assist your progress in your learning and development, specific to your assessed needs.

What do I need to bring?

Pen, pencil, ruler, a notebook, calculator and a folder.

Any additional costs?

There are no addtional fees to this course.
