The document provides guidance on planning for the two writing tasks in the Level 2 Functional Skills English exam. It explains that each task includes an information box outlining the format, audience, and purpose, as well as bullet points forming a ready-made plan. For Task 1, students should spend 5 minutes planning and 30 minutes writing within the 250-300 word limit. Task 2 follows the same structure but is shorter, allocating 5 minutes for planning and 20 minutes for writing up to 250 words. Effective planning helps ensure all important details are included, improves organization, and allows students to address the tasks successfully within the time constraints.
