Having functional skills level 2 qualifications in maths and English could be a deal breaker for anyone hoping to progress to University, an apprenticeship, or even employment after school. The functional skills level 2 qualifications are equivalent to GCSE grade 4 (the old grade C) and represent an alternative to sitting traditional GCSEs. This makes them suitable for anyone who doesn’t already have GCSE grades in maths or English or needs to improve their GCSE grades for their applications.
Regulated by Ofqual, the functional skills level 2 qualifications are recognised and accepted by most UK universities, employers and training providers. What makes functional skills qualifications even more useful, is that they can be taken all year round, rather than only a handful of times a year like traditional GCSE exams. They also don’t require attendance at an exam centre, as they can be undertaken entirely online through the official MME Exams service.
MME Exams run exams for GCSEs, A Levels, and equivalency tests, too, across a broad range of subjects, from science and statistics to business and history. MME Exams can help you or a loved one gain the qualifications needed to progress.
