Entry Requirements

To study an adult English or maths GCSE it is necessary for you to attend an initial assessment and diagnostic session at South Essex College (this is not an exam). This will then enable us to gauge the level you are currently working at and enrol you on the most suitable pathway for your success.

GCSE English or Maths

You will be required to attend one of our adult diagnostic assessment events. Provided you have gained a Level 1 or 2 initial assessments and successfully complete the GCSE diagnostics at the appropriate level then you will be offered a place on the course. If you are unsuccessful you will be offered an alternative Level 2 course or a qualification that will prepare you for GCSE the following year.
