Multiply is a new government-funded programme to help adults improve their numeracy skills.
If you’re 19 and over and don’t have maths GCSE at grade C (or equivalent), you can access free numeracy courses through Multiply to build your confidence with numbers and gain a qualification.
Good numeracy skills unlock job opportunities and lead to higher wages or prepare you for further study. They also help in everyday life, such as assisting children with homework and budgeting money.
There will be courses for beginners to more advanced courses such as GCSE Maths, Functional Skills Qualifications, or equivalent.
Online tutorials and content are also available, so you can learn at a pace that suits you.
To book a place at one of these workshops by calling 02392 621860 or by emailing thelearningplace@portsmouthcc.gov.uk.
