This short test uses one question from each of the 12 real interactive activities in Lesson 20 of the Citizen Literacy course, covering phonics, spelling, sentence building, writing, listening, reading aloud, reading comprehension, punctuation and grammar.
Answering all 12 activities correctly suggests the learner is working at or above Functional Skills Entry Level 1/2 and does not currently need a literacy intervention. Getting activities wrong suggests they may benefit from further support.
This is an informal in-house screening tool built from the Citizen Literacy teaching activities — it is not an accredited Functional Skills assessment.
Note: Lesson 20 in the live course currently runs from activity 20.1 to 20.12, so this screener covers all 12 real activities and is scored out of 12.
