Maths
Good maths skills are essential for everyday life.
Developing your maths skills will not only make life easier, but it can help you get a better job, progress in your career, open up opportunities for further education, help with budgeting and enable you to support your children with homework.
At Learn Devon we offer Functional Skills levels (Entry Level up to Level 2) as well as GCSE maths courses. Our Functional Skills, or ‘Improve your maths’ courses, welcome learners at all levels and are open for enrolment at any time during the year. Our GCSE courses begin strictly in September and end in June during the following year. We also run GCSE preparatory courses in the spring and autumn to help brush up on skills before joining a GCSE course in September.

- Improve understanding of maths from basic calculations to decimals, fractions and percentages
