How Will It Be Delivered?
Functional skills qualifications in English and Mathematics are available at
level 1 and level 2.
The skills criteria for functional skills qualifications specify assessment outcomes for qualifications at each level in terms of skill standards, coverage and range.

Each of the two skills has a set of performance standards based on three key areas:
Mathematics

Analysing – processing and using mathematics
Interpreting and communicating the results of the analysis
English
Speaking and listening
