The course covers the full Functional Skills English Level 2 syllabus across three modules: Reading, Writing, and Speaking, Listening and Communication.
Module 1: Reading
- Understanding written information: Identify main points and detail, read between the lines, compare texts, recognise bias and judge how reliable a piece of information is.
- Text structure and presentation: Explore how headings, images, formatting and other presentation techniques influence how readers understand information, and how language is used for different purposes and audiences.
- Assessment: Reinforce your knowledge through topic-based quizzes and tutor-marked assignments that monitor your progress.
Module 2: Writing
- Written communication: Create clear, well-organised writing for different formats and audiences, including emails, letters, articles, reports and blog posts, using the right tone and register.
- Spelling, grammar and punctuation: Strengthen your accuracy in the essential English language skills that examiners look for.
- Assessment: Track your progress through end-of-unit quizzes and tutor-marked assignments.
Module 3: Speaking, Listening and Communication
- Real-world application: Practise taking part in discussions and giving short presentations, and develop strategies for everyday situations at home, in the workplace and in the wider community.
- Communication development: Build your confidence to listen, respond, ask questions and express your views clearly in different situations.
- Assessment: Consolidate your learning through integrated quizzes and a tutor-marked assignment.
Your Exam: Online or In Person
Once you have completed the course and your mock exams, you can sit your Functional Skills English Level 2 exam online or in person – whichever suits you best. Your exam is included in the course, and a free resit is available if you need it.
