I understand that some TOCs ask potential train drivers to have GCSE in maths and English grade C or equitant. I was reading another thread called “Dear Diary....A life of a Trainee Train Driver” when it was mentioned that this person took a test and then did functional skills before they started driver training but this thread was moved and I can’t find it anymore. I’m just wondering if you need to have GCSE in maths and English grade C or equitant or if I could just take this test, then do functional skills if I get a job, as the difference between buying a text/workbook and paying functional skills is a lot of money. I do have maths and English literature at grade C or equitant but I don’t have English language at grade C or equitant.
