The students:
“ Today was much better than I expected; I’ve really enjoyed it! I can see myself running my own beauty salon now but I will have to pass my exams first and probably do a business course as well”
Fiona Beauty Therapy
The college staff:
“ Engaging students in Wider Key Skills activities is a real challenge. However, this programme delivered by Working Knowledge is pitched at just the right level, the students genuinely enjoy it and the outcomes far exceed that demanded by the LSC funding.”
Karen Glencross Redcar and Cleveland College
The local business experts:
“ This programme is a great simulation of what work is about and I could see some of these young people visibly growing in confidence as they realised that they do have what it takes to be a success. I would like to
be involved again.”
