The development of this qualification has been stakeholder led and is primarily designed for learners who have not yet achieved a GCSE at grades 9 to 4 (or A* to C) in mathematics, or equivalent programme, who want to progress onto a veterinary nursing programme of study.
The units within this Ofqual-regulated qualification have been rigorously developed to include the essentials for supporting the development of applied knowledge and skills necessary ro progress to further veterinary qualifications.
Throughout the qualification, learners will gain the underpinning knowledge required to apply maths within the veterinary sector, to include applying fractions, decimals, percentages and ratio; accurately interpreting information and data and carrying out calculations commonly used within ever-day veterinary practice.
This Level 2 Award has 23 guided learning hours (GLH) with a total qualification time (TQT) of 45 hours.
