Don’t let maths hold you back
You can do maths! It’s all about confidence
Maths is everywhere; but getting better at managing your bills, budgeting, improving your potential at work or helping the kids with the homework doesn’t mean you need to go back to school or college.
Multiply courses and initiatives are flexible and built around you.
About the free maths courses
The free maths courses can help adults brush up your skills, build your confidence in using numbers in everyday life and work, and help you to get a maths qualification if you want to.
The Multiply programme is primarily for people aged 19 plus who do not already have a GCSE at grade C/level 2 (or equivalent), but the Multiply free maths courses are now also available to anyone that also needs a brush up.
If you have a GCSE/level 2 maths qualification, perhaps from school a while ago, but don’t have those skills anymore, you can get fully funded support if you:
- want to get a job or move on in your career
- want to progress to a higher level of learning
- need to fil a gap in your maths skills
Free courses are available to help:
- you to gain confidence with numbers
- you manage your money
- employees with the specific numeracy skills needed in their job
- get into work or get on in a certain job or career.
- give you practical everyday maths knowledge leading to a qualification
- parents wanting to help their children with their numeracy
- adults who are leaving, or have just left, the care system
