Everything you need to take Functional Skills English Level 1 learners from “where are they now?” to “ready to sit”: a diagnostic, an 11-topic workbook, two full mock sets (Reading + Writing) with mark schemes and model answers, a speaking, listening and communicating toolkit, and an Excel tracker that RAG-rates every content statement. For FE colleges, apprenticeship providers, adult learning and 1:1 tutors. Every text is original and written for adults, with no childish clip art. What’s included • Tutor guide with a suggested 12-session route and a content map showing where each of the 25 DfE Level 1 English content statements is practised and assessed. • Diagnostic check: 20 one-mark questions (10 reading; 10 spelling, punctuation and grammar) plus a short writing sample marked out of 8 (28 marks).

Each topic has key ideas, common mistakes, worked examples, practice and a self-check: 22 worked examples and 62 practice questions (92 marks), with answers and accept / do-not-accept guidance at the back. • Two full mock sets, A and B. Each has a Reading paper (3 original texts, 60 minutes, 30 marks, multiple-choice and short written answers, including comparing texts and inferring from images) and a Writing paper (2 tasks, 60 minutes, 36 marks: 10 composition + 8 SPaG per task). • Mark schemes for both sets: reading answers with marking guidance and statement references, a writing mark grid by content statement, four full-mark model answers with examiner-style notes, and a low-scoring calibration example. • Speaking, listening and communicating toolkit: talk topics, 4 formal discussion briefs, a talk planning sheet, a phrase bank, register examples and assessor record sheets for statements 1–8. • Editable Word versions of the mocks, mark schemes, diagnostic, workbook and SLC toolkit. • Excel cohort tracker: enter marks per question or writing criterion and it calculates totals, %, reading and writing readiness bands, SPaG and composition sub-totals, a “start with” topic, SLC statements met and a red / amber / green % for every one of the 25 content statements. Questions testing two statements count towards both. • An all-in-one print PDF (88 A4 pages), plus the separate PDFs. All content is original, written to the DfE (2018) Functional Skills English subject content, and works alongside any awarding body’s course. Independent, not endorsed by any awarding body, and no past-paper material. The mocks are generic practice papers (timings, marks and dictionary rules vary by board, and each paper has a tutor note on this). Readiness bands are a teaching guide only, not official pass marks.
