Please Note: The generic learning based around functional skills of English, Maths and ICT are a vital part of the personal development of all learners. Functional skills will be highly valued by both employers and higher education providers for their impact on productivity, independence and achievement. Functional Skills Assessment requires learners to show they can use skills confidently in a range of different situations ( depending on the qualification level). Learners are expected to apply their skills in practical tasks and scenarios and to show that they can use problem - solving techniques effectively. Functional Skills are not graded: learners are awarded a pass or fail at one of five levels ( Entry 1, Entry 2, Entry 3, Level 1 or Level 2.)
