Apprenticeship Providers must offer Level 2 Functional Skills

Posted on | November 21, 2011 |

Announced by Vince Cable this week, a strengthening in the rigour of ALL apprenticeships as learners will be required to continue their Functional Skills Maths and English study throughout their apprenticeship programme.  So even once they have passed the minimum requirement (typically level 1) Maths and English, they cannot “drop” it.  The consequence is that all providers must offer Functional Maths and Functional English or GCSE training provision at Level 2.

Exciting times for Functional Skills in Apprenticeships!
