Find Your Level
in Maths,
Without the Exam Stress.
A short, adaptive assessment that finds exactly where you are across number, measures, data, and problem solving, so you know where to focus next.
Aligned to NCFE, Pearson Edexcel, and City & Guilds Functional Skills Mathematics frameworks. From Entry Level through to Level 2.
What You'll Be Assessed On
Four Areas of Maths,
One Clear Picture of You.
The assessment covers four areas drawn directly from the Functional Skills Mathematics subject content. Each area is assessed proportionally, so you get a balanced picture of where you stand.
Number and Calculations
Whole numbers, fractions, decimals, percentages, and ratio. Our items assess procedural fluency alongside conceptual understanding, distinguishing learners who follow rote steps from those who grasp the underlying relationships.
Measures, Shape and Space
Length, mass, capacity, time, perimeter, area, and volume. Questions are grounded in real-world contexts so the engine can distinguish between learners who apply formulae mechanically and those who reason spatially.
Statistics and Data
Interpreting tables, charts, and averages. Items progress from reading a simple bar chart at Entry level through to evaluating misleading data representations at Level 2, testing statistical literacy in workplace-relevant scenarios.
Problem Solving
Multi-step problems that synthesise number, measure, and data skills. These items carry the highest discrimination value because they reveal whether a learner can transfer knowledge to unfamiliar contexts.
Smart Questions That Adapt to You
Questions That Find
Your Level.
Traditional maths assessments give everyone the same questions, which frustrates confident learners and overwhelms those who are still building skills. This assessment adapts as you go, picking the right questions based on how you have answered so far.
Every Question Is Carefully Designed
Each question has been designed to measure real mathematical ability at a specific level. That means every answer tells us something meaningful about where you are.
The Next Question Is Chosen for You
Based on how you have answered so far, the assessment picks the next question that will tell us the most about your level.
It Finishes When It Knows Your Level
The assessment stops when it has a confident picture of where you stand. If your strengths are clear, you will finish faster.
The Result
The rigour of a 60-minute maths exam, delivered in an adaptive conversation that takes as little as 20 minutes.
Learners stay engaged. Providers get statistically reliable placement data. Everyone saves time.
Your Maths Strengths at a Glance
See Where You Stand,
Know Where to Go.
A single percentage tells you very little. Your maths profile shows which areas you have mastered and which need more work, so you or your tutor can build a plan that starts in the right place.
Domain-Level Breakdown
Scores for number, measures, data, and problem solving reported independently. No averaging over weaknesses.
Level Placement
A clear Entry Level, Level 1, or Level 2 recommendation based on weighted domain performance and IRT-estimated ability.
Pathway Recommendations
Mapped to specific Functional Skills qualifications so tutors know exactly which units to prioritise.

Frequently Asked Questions
The assessment covers number and calculations, measures and shape, statistics, and mathematical problem solving. Questions adapt in real time to each learner's ability, spanning from Entry Level to Level 2, and results are mapped to all five UK awarding bodies.
Adaptive assessments using Item Response Theory (IRT) are significantly more accurate than fixed-form tests. By selecting questions matched to the learner's demonstrated ability, the assessment converges on a precise working level in fewer questions, avoiding time wasted on items that are too easy or too hard.
Yes. The assessment produces timestamped, domain-level results that provide the kind of evidence Ofsted inspectors look for under the new report card framework. Results include working level, domain breakdowns, and awarding body mappings that demonstrate accurate learner placement.
