• Multiply – helping adults improve their Maths

This is a new programme to help adults improve their numeracy skills.
If you’re aged 19 and over and don’t have maths GCSE at grade C (or equivalent), you can access free numeracy courses through Multiply to build your confidence with numbers and gain a qualification.

Benefits

Good numeracy skills may unlock job opportunities and lead to higher wages or prepare you for further study. They also help in everyday life, such as helping children with homework and budgeting money.

There are courses for beginners to more advanced courses such as GCSE Maths, Functional Skills Qualifications, or equivalent, so you will be able to learn at a pace that suits you.

Who is it for?

All adults and businesses across the UK can benefit from Multiply.

My Green World Teaches about climate change, the environment, and sustainability to:

  • Develop a sense of responsibility for the environment.
  • Encourage students to get involved in community-based environmental initiatives.
  • Become active participants in creating a more sustainable world.

Numeracy for Me (ESOL) Helps learners to see the relevance of numeracy in their everyday lives. This would include words and phrases related to numbers, basic maths such as handling money, measurements, weight, and time.
