🌟 Apprentice Spotlight: Lexie Hinton 🌟

Recently, Lexie joined us at our Open Day alongside Ringway, sharing her experiences as an apprentice and helping to inspire the next generation considering a career in construction.

Lexie is a fantastic example of the opportunities an apprenticeship can provide, and her hard work and positive attitude certainly haven't gone unnoticed. Her employer recently shared:

💬 *"Lexie, your dedication and passion inspire me every day. Keep shining!"*

It's always great to see apprentices giving back and encouraging others to take their first steps into the industry. We're proud to work with talented individuals like Lexie and look forward to seeing her continue to grow and succeed in her career.

👏 Keep up the amazing work, Lexie!

🎓 Outstanding Results. Exceptional Achievement. 🎓

A huge congratulations to our second year Level 4 learners, who have now successfully completed their HNC qualifications, and what a set of results they have achieved!

⭐ 33% Distinction
⭐ 41% Merit
⭐ 27% Pass

That means an incredible 74% of all grades were achieved at Merit or Distinction level.

These results are a testament to the hard work, dedication, and resilience shown by our learners.

We're incredibly proud of this cohort and the standards they continue to set. Their success reflects not only their commitment and ambition, but also the quality of learning and support delivered across our programmes.

With HNC completion now behind them, learners are preparing for the final stage of their apprenticeships as gateway reviews get underway ahead of End-Point Assessment.

Congratulations to every learner on this fantastic achievement, we can't wait to celebrate the next milestone with you! 👏
