Functional Maths Level 1 & Level 2 One-Month Programmes 2027
Two accelerated four-week programmes focused on practical number,
financial mathematics, measures, data handling and problem solving.
Learners may complete Level 1 in January and progress directly to Level 2
in February.
4 weeksPer level
20 sessionsPer level
WeekdaysMonday to Friday
40 sessionsComplete pathway
Intensive programme structure
Each programme combines direct teaching, practical application,
independent practice, regular skills checks and a final assessment.
The schedule is designed for learners who can attend consistently and
practise between sessions.
Level 1
Core number, fractions, percentages, ratio, measures, time, money,
charts and simple probability.
Level 2
Advanced percentages, proportion, formulae, financial mathematics,
compound measures, geometry, data and combined probability.
Daily commitment
Recommended taught study plus independent practice and correction of
errors after each session.
Important: These are intensive curriculum programmes.
Completion of the schedule supports readiness but does not by itself
guarantee success in an external qualification assessment.
