Course Aims

As part of Hull Training and Adult Education’s COVID recovery plan, our Family Learning courses are free of charge.  We are here to offer support with a range of provision to fit around your busy schedule.

You will develop strategies to support your child’s learning at school and at home.  You will improve your knowledge of children’s numeracy development.  This will help you to identify your child’s individual needs and support their learning.  ­

You will learn about:

  • Adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing
  • Fractions, percentages and decimals
  • Working with money, time and metric measurements
  • Using tables and charts to present and explain data

You will learn at your own pace through:

  • Group, paired or individual tasks
  • Paper based activities
  • Demonstrations and practical activities
  • Independent study

Achieving a Level 2 Functional Skills qualification will allow you to meet the maths requirements of many jobs in the labour market. You will be able to progress on to further/higher education.

A Level 1 qualification is equivalent to GCSE grade D-G 0r 3 – 1 level. A Level 2 qualification is equivalent to GCSE grade A*-C or 9 – 4 level.
