Multiply - numeracy support for adults

What's happening in Wiltshire

Wiltshire Council has been awarded £2.1 million of government funding to give adult learners a chance to develop their numeracy skills.

Multiply is here to support adults aged 19+ who do not currently have a Level 2/GCSE Maths at grade 4 (previously known as a C grade). Or if you have the qualification but feel you are not working at that level anymore.

Courses will give adult learners a chance to develop the numeracy skills to be more confident at home and work. There are a number of courses on offer, ranging from face to face to online provision.
