If you did not get your GCSE English or Maths, you do not have to sit the GCSE again. Functional Skills Level 2 is a nationally recognised qualification that is accepted by employers, universities and the NHS in place of GCSE – and you can get it fully online, in your own time.
Many students who struggled with GCSE find Functional Skills Level 2 more straightforward. The exam is focused on practical English and Maths skills rather than the broad academic content of GCSE, and the preparation is designed to get you exam-ready as efficiently as possible.

Why Functional Skills Level 2 instead of GCSE resits

- Fully accepted by employers as equivalent to GCSE
- Accepted for university entry including Access to Higher Education
