We’re excited to share the story of one of our learners who completed the Level 1 Certificate in Caring for Children Under Five with us. She’s now starting her Level 3 Apprenticeship at a local nursery. The training helped her succeed in her interview, where she was asked about her skills, behaviours, and understanding of British values and Prevent. We’re so proud of what she’s achieved and can’t wait to see how she grows in her new role! #fridayfeedback #caringforchildrenunderfive #childcare #training #skills #adultlearning #careerinchildcare #earlyyears #careers #apprenticeship
