If you struggle to commit to a regular time to access a regular weekly class, but you do have the time and commitment to complete the self-study tasks, this could be suitable for you. You will undertake a short Initial Assessment to check your suitability for this course. On acceptance, your tutor will arrange a Zoom call with you to get you started on Google Classroom.

This course is available to those who have not previously achieved a grade C/4+ in maths and have a good foundation in maths skills. You must also be a resident in a non-devolved area to access this funded course - please check here if this applies to you.
Although this is a self-study course, you must keep in regular contact with your tutor via Google Classroom. You will only be able to make progress if the weekly tasks are completed. You will be withdrawn from the course if there is a lack of contact of more than four weeks, or you are not completing the tasks in a timely manner.
The GCSE national exams take place in May/June 2024 and there are three exams so you must be able to attend and undertake these exams in York.
