Before you enrol, we will make sure you are directed to the right level of course for you through a Maths assessment/interview. You should be able to state which skills you wish to improve, have clear goals you wish to achieve and be able to work independently. All students must take a Maths assessment which is required to find the right study level for each applicant.
