Qualifications, confidence and career progression at any age100% online

Subjects on offer

Functional Skills English (Level 1/2)

• A GCSE-equivalent qualification.
• Accepted for jobs, apprenticeships, teacher training, and many university courses.
• Colleges often offer this free, but only as a fixed evening class, up to 30 weeks long.
• 1:1 online suits you better if you can't commit to that, or want to go at your own pace.
• If a fee applies, it's about the same as college fees (£362–850).

GCSE English Literature, Geography & History

• The only route to these subjects — Functional Skills doesn't cover them.
• Most adult options are self-study packages (£299–375) with email marking only, no live teaching.
• This is more personal, at a similar price.
• Includes the same private-candidate exam help as the Home Education service.

Vocational Qualifications

• Covers Health & Social Care, Child Development, Travel & Tourism, Performing Arts, and similar courses.
• I've led BTEC and NCFE provision before, so I know this coursework well.
• Support includes: understanding assignment briefs, understanding grading criteria, planning your work, reviewing drafts, and building good study habits.

In plain terms: I've actually run these vocational courses before, so I know how the coursework and marking really works.

Supporting Apprentices & Training Providers Future direction

• Training providers are funded to teach Functional Skills English & Maths to apprentices.
• They often need extra help when they don't have staff to do this.
• I could help with this online, anywhere in the UK.
• Worth knowing: since February 2025, apprentices aged 19+ no longer need to pass Functional Skills. It's still required for apprentices 16–18 without a GCSE already.
• Not yet live: I'd need to contact training providers directly first, before any arrangement or pricing is confirmed.
