| People without GCSE maths earn on average £8,000 p.a less than those with the qualification. In a 40 - 50 year working life that is a loss of £3-400,000. We can test and assess your current skills set against the national standards, address any short comings you currently have and get you through the exams quickly, free of charge and at a time and pace to suit you! These tests have proven very popular and we have helped over 350 people pass their tests in this academic year alone. Most recently we have had students take the exams to meet requirements for university / college admissions and job entry requirements. | |
