A virtual functional skills platform with online teaching and support.
With the new, more rigorous curriculum, the EDQuals Functional Skills resources aim to bridge knowledge gaps and increase understanding in order for your learners to become fluent in the fundamentals of Mathematics and English.
Learners can use the online platform to develop their knowledge and understanding in a range of subjects and improve their literacy skills.
Our resources aim to develop your learners’ literacy and numeracy skills, taking into account their current levels of attainment so that you can target areas an individual learner needs to develop.
From basic spelling to forming complex sentences, and from simple algebra to more complex mathematical concepts, your learners are able to develop their skills at a pace that suits them.
Their progress and development can be managed through their own personal pathways or accessed through independent, structured and individual learning pathways.
