Congratulations to our Apprenticeships students

So pleased to have more and more students offered an apprenticeship. This is because of the work of all the staff that run the apprenticeship club. In this club the students get practice of interviews and chance to improve their soft skills that go alongside their academic studies to make them a rounded individual and very employable.

So proud of all those student who have been offered an apprenticeship. These are difficult to get and require determination to stay the distance of the application process. Here they are, we are so proud of them.
