Learn Now Distance Learning College launch initiative to get learners back on track following the effects of Covid-19 on basic skills and education

Learn Now is a family run business based in Devon with years of experience and expertise in the field of distance learning. Their integrated services ensure students have an enjoyable and fulfilling experience while gaining their qualifications through their institute.
 
Nobody can argue that the events of the last 12 months, has definitely led to disruption with basic English and Maths, as well as Functional Skills. There is a question mark however, over whether schools have been able to overcome these obstacles in order to ensure that learners stay on track? These are answers that many parents/guardians are looking for with some feeling that education has been on hold for many learners.
 
Although for some types of employment, you will not use your English or Maths skills, employers still expect individuals to be educated to at least a level 2, before they will even invite them for an interview and applicants are finding that they may be disadvantaged because of this.
 
Many learners who would normally be looking to continue into full-time employment following completion of their GCSEs, must now consider other options available, such as apprenticeships, where they can continue to complete their Maths and English skills by way of Functional Skills or GCSE subjects. With the outlook of limited employment opportunities available, it is thought that colleges could become overwhelmed with applications from prospective students who would not normally be choosing this route to further their careers.
 
With this in mind, Learn Now has launched a new initiative to enable learners to get back on track and claim the qualifications they so rightly deserve. More students than ever have been able to secure places on basic Maths and English courses, following a recent recruitment drive to make available an increased number of Tutors trained in this field.
 
GCSE students who should have sat their examinations in the summer 2021 series, have also had the opportunity to obtain Centre Assessed Grades with the help and dedication of Learn Now Tutors. Many spending weekends marking mock exam papers to ensure that all learners are able to be put forward for consideration.
 
If you are in need of any academic guidance or counselling during the journey of your career, Learn Now’s customer service and expertise will ensure you the best solutions to your questions. With an integrated summary of all academic courses under their wing, you will be in safe hands. Visit their website at https://www.learnnow.org.uk for more information.
