At Leicester Tutor Company, we support those looking to obtain their Functional Skills English Level 2 qualification. On our Functional Skills Level 2 page, you can find all the information you need on the Functional Skills English Level 2 Exam. A Functional Skills English Level 2 qualification is equivalent to a GCSE Grade C/Level 4, so it is a perfect solution if you did not get your English GCSE for whatever reason. This qualification will give you access to university courses, apprenticeships, and it will expand your CV for jobs. Many learners have not studied English in an academic capacity for a long time, so comprehending the basics and understanding punctuation, grammar, and spelling are essential.

 

The Functional Skills English Level 2 Exam consists of three different areas:

  • The Reading Exam
  • The Writing Exam
  • The Speaking Listening and Communicating Exam (SLC)

 

In the reading exam, you will need to display your ability to understand the meaning and purpose of texts. For the writing exam, you will be tested on your ability to implement key language features in creative writing tasks. The SLC is slightly different, you will be taking the exam with other learners, and you will all be assessed on your communication skills. You will need to prepare a short presentation on a given topic, which will be followed by the opportunity for other learners to ask you questions. For the SLC, you will need to demonstrate your speaking, listening, and communicating skills to a sufficient standard.
