Functional Skills Delivery Strucutre 

Learning Aims:

The Pearson Edexcel Functional Skills Qualifications in Mathematics at Level 1 and  Level 2 are for learners who want to develop understanding and skills in mathematics. 

The qualifications give learners the opportunity to: 

● demonstrate a sound grasp of the underpinning skills and basics of mathematical  skills appropriate to the level, and apply mathematical thinking to solve simple problems in familiar situations.  

Learning outcomes 

Functional Skills mathematics qualifications at these levels should: 

● indicate that students can demonstrate their ability in mathematical skills and their  ability to apply these, through appropriate reasoning and decision making, to solve  realistic problems of increasing complexity; 

● introduce students to new areas of life and work so that they are exposed to  concepts and problems which, while not of immediate concern, may be of value in  later life; and 

● enable students to develop an appreciation of the role played by mathematics in  the world of work and in life generally.
