Skills for Work (Numeracy)

Would you like to improve the following skills?

...then one of these courses is for you!

Entry Level Numeracy Courses:
These courses are for adults who found Maths difficult at school. There is a focus on mastering basic calculations, fractions, decimals and how the metric system works. Students and tutors plan the learning programme on an individual basis, in a supportive environment.
Students work towards achieving a qualification to demonstrate competency in numeracy at Entry 3.

Level 1 Numeracy Courses:
These courses are for adults who are returning to study after a break and need to 'brush up' on their numeracy for work. Students may also choose to improve their confidence in their general numeracy abilities. Students will work on 'everyday numeracy skills' including: percentages, how to work out areas, volumes and the mean average together with using charts. Students work towards achieving the National Test in Numeracy at Level 1.

Level 2 Numeracy Courses:
This is an ideal course if your next move is Maths GCSE and you want to fill a gap in your CV. However, if you do not wish to progress to GCSE Maths, then this course will lead to a national qualification which is sufficient for many further courses or workplace requirements. You will be able to demonstrate that you are fully numerate by working towards achieving the National Test in Numeracy at Level 2.

All the above courses are held at Broadwater and at Shoreham Airport campuses during the day and evenings from Monday to Friday.
The majority of classes are 3 hours during the day and 2 hours in the evening.
