: Functional Skills qualifications at our alternative provision

All of our learners have free access to online Functional Skills in Maths and English as part of our alternative provision offer. This has been made possible through a partnership with a private online learning provider, who specialise in working collaboratively with alternative provisions and young people with SEND. Learners opting to include functional skills in their studies will be allocated study slots within their personal development days and receive IAF support within these hours but can also complete additional independent learning at home.
