- Utilise ratios and proportions: Simplify ratios, divide amounts into proportional shares, and apply scale factors to practical problems.
- Calculate measures and geometry: Work with units of measurement, calculate the perimeter and area of 2D shapes, and find the volume of simple 3D solids.
- Interpret data and statistics: Collect, organise, and represent data using tables, bar charts, and line graphs, and calculate averages (mean, median, mode) and range.
- Manage multi-step problem solving: Break down complex multi-step problems into manageable operations, verifying answers through estimation and inverse operations.
- Transition smoothly to qualification courses: Demonstrate the analytical skills, terminology, and calculator/non-calculator methods required for a Functional Skill.
