How many attempts do learners get for each cycle?

Each time we release new exams, we release three per assessment method, so there are up to 6 opportunities to sit within a cycle. Cycles are a period of time where exams are active, which last for up to three months and are to ensure the security and integrity of the exams. For more information on when new exams are released, please consult the Key Dates document on our Functional Skills resources page.
