Overview
Upskill in maths and English with flexible, personalised learning that fits your busy life
English and maths qualifications are the fundamental building blocks to achieving your goal. Whether that involves further education, going to university or training to improve your employability.

Please note: Adult Maths and English Provision – Academic Year 2026–27
From September 2026, the College will no longer offer face-to-face classroom-based courses for GCSE Maths, GCSE English, Functional Skills Maths, or Functional Skills English.
All delivery will move to our online distance learning platform, PASS TECH. PASS TECH is an independent learning platform designed for learners who are able to study independently. Learners will work through the learning materials, assessments, and mock examinations online at their own pace.
Before enrolling, learners must ensure they have access to a suitable laptop or computer with a working camera, reliable internet access, and the ability to study independently.
Information sessions will be held at each campus prior to enrolment. During these sessions, the College will provide a demonstration of the PASS TECH platform, explain the enrolment process and entry requirements, and answer any questions relating to the programme.
Further details regarding enrolment and information sessions will be published on the College website once confirmed.
Entry Requirements
You will be required to complete an initial assessment and then a diagnostic assessment to determine which appropriate level will be set E.G. Level 1 or Level 2 (which is equivalent to Grade 4 /C grade GCSE).
Course Structure
Free for UK adults if you don’t already have a grade 4 / C in GCSE or Level 2 equivalent in English & maths.
