Testimonials

Louie-Rowbotham, Student

"Me being an apprentice at the college I come in every week for 3 days to do my training which involves using machines and various tools. I really enjoy this course as it works a lot of my ability’s by using different machines and tools every day meaning I learn something new almost every lesson, the teachers are very helpful and if I’m ever stuck will always take time to try and help to push me to the best of my ability."
