The Pass Functional Skills diagnostic assessments include:

1. Initial Assessment – A customized assessment that determines a student’s initial level before any revision, establishing their “baseline” knowledge. Upon completion, students receive recommendations for a suitable functional skills course to advance their learning.
2. Subject Knowledge Assessment – This test covers a wide range of topics to assess a student’s understanding thoroughly. After completion, specific topics are suggested for focused revision. Each course has its unique Subject Knowledge Assessment to cater to different learning needs.

Why take an alterative assessment? 

Students familiar with the BKSB diagnostic will find the Pass Functional Skills diagnostics to be a strong, free alternative that matches or exceeds the depth of the BKSB English and Maths assessment. While BKSB English and BKSB Maths assessments have a reputation for comprehensive coverage, Pass Functional Skills provides equally extensive feedback with no cost, ensuring effective and targeted learning.

Unlike the paid BKSB Functional Skills Initial Assessment, the Pass Functional Skills initial assessments offer a superior, free approach to evaluating student readiness, providing tailored course recommendations to enhance learning outcomes.
