Functional Skills Level 2 for NHS and Healthcare Workers

Level 2 English and Maths are required for many NHS roles – Band 3, 4 and 5 in particular – as well as for healthcare courses, care certificates and professional registration. If you do not have them yet, Functify Learning can help you get them without disrupting your shifts or your life outside work.

We work with a lot of nurses, healthcare assistants and other healthcare workers. Our timetable is built around shift patterns, with early morning, evening and weekend options available. You can study at your own pace or join a live course – whichever works better for you.

Timetable options for healthcare workers

We know shift work does not follow a nine-to-five. Our live courses are available at times that work for healthcare workers specifically:

  • Wednesday 6-7am – ideal for nurses finishing a night shift
  • Monday 7-8pm English and 8-9pm Maths – after a day shift
  • Saturday 10-11am English and 11am-12pm Maths – on days off
  • 5-Day self-paced revision course – study whenever you have time, no fixed sessions
