Functional Skills Maths

At EMBS our maths courses will help you develop your skills and confidence. We offer courses in Functional Skills from Entry 1 to Level 2, which can help you prepare for further education, help you progress in your current work or increase your employment opportunities. The course you will be offered will depend on your previous qualifications and an initial assessment.

The focus is problem solving, with lots of opportunities to develop English skills in the classroom. The Entry Level maths exams cover the areas of number systems, measures, shape and space and data handling.

You will work towards Maths Functional Skills qualifications, which are recognised by employers and helpful in gaining jobs or progressing to study further courses. We deliver levels of Functional Skills Maths qualifications from Entry 1 to Level 1.

    Testimonials

    «...I not only consider EMBS a college - I also see it as my family.... »

    «I arrived in this country four months ago, without any confidence in my English and really scared to be an independent person at sixteen. I didn't know what my next steps were since the education in my country is really different. One day, my aunt bought me to EMBS. At the beginning I was really insecure as I didn't even know how to use the bus and get there, it made me feel like a child surrounded by grown up people that didn’t understand me at all. Ever since I started to study here, everything negative that I used to feel has changed completely. I’ve got to meet amazing people like Jo and Jane, who took care of me and were concerned about my future. I’ve also got to make amazing friends like Aisha and Abner that always make me laugh and feel positive about life. Of course, this is not the only thing that the EMBS has given me: they also are deeply involved in my education and they help me in any way possible to achieve my purpose, which is go to university and study human rights. If I am being honest, I not only consider EMBS a college - I also see it as my family. »

    «...I really enjoyed my time at EMBS, meeting so many different people and making lots of fun and happy memories.... »

    «Before I came to EMBS I was very shy and often felt very awkward to start conversations with people around me, I never spoke unless I was spoken to but after a few months of being here I gained confidence and was able to communicate with other people comfortably, made good friends and feel like I knew myself. I really enjoyed my time at EMBS, meeting so many different people and making lots of fun and happy memories.»

    «Before I came to EMBS I was very shy and not confident, I used to be very afraid to speak English outside of college. But after several months, EMBS helped me to gain more confidence and especially improve my spoken and written English. The staff are really nice and friendly.»
