This course is suitable for students who are studying for a grade 4 or 5 in GCSE Maths having achieved grade 3 (or equivalent) in GCSE Maths in a previous attempt.
All students are required to undertake screening tests to assess their current level of numeracy. If basic arithmetic skills (addition, subtraction, division, multiplication) need support, a Functional Skills Maths course may be more suitable first, before progressing on to a GCSE Mathematics course.
Success depends on motivation and the willingness to continue the course when faced with new topics. Age and time away from previous study should not deter anyone from attempting to improve their skills in mathematics.
Before enrolling, students are required to attend an interview to ensure they fulfil the suitability requirements which is normally a grade 3 (or legacy D grade) in GCSE Maths and Students with lower than grade 3 should study and successfully complete Functional Skills Maths up to Level 1 before progressing on this course.
The results achieved in the screening test will help to decide the most suitable point of entry for achieving your goal in mathematics
