Applicants who achieve level three in the one unit key skill awards of Communication, ICT and Numeracy can also gain an additional 20 points for each subject.

However...

  • Applicants who have level three Communication, and have studied A-level English Language, will not be able to count both their qualifications.
  • Applicants who have level three Numeracy/Application of Number, and have studied A-level Mathematics, will not be able to count both their qualifications.
