Functional Skills Tests

There are a number of different awarding bodies (also known as exam boards).  Your teacher should be able to tell you which one your fuctional skills will be awarded by.  Look on the awarding body website and you may find past papers or sample papers.  Most of these have notes for teachers.

Practice tests and past papers may be useful as part of your revision.  The most appropriate ones will be those produced by your awarding body, but others may be useful to improve your general knowledge.  This page aims to contain some convenient links.
