“A New Term, New Opportunities!”
As the new term begins, we’re thrilled to celebrate our students who have recently started their supported internship placements — each one gaining real-world experience, building confidence, and developing valuable employability skills.
Building Skills and Confidence at Future Youth Zone
Another of our interns has joined the dynamic team at Future Youth Zone, supporting a range of youth programmes and activities. From helping with sports sessions to assisting in creative workshops, he’s learning how teamwork and communication are key to success in a busy community hub.
Learning the Ropes in the Motor Vehicle Industry
Our student based at Ken Lee Motor Services has made an impressive start!
He’s been learning hands-on tasks such as replacing brake pads, checking vehicle bulbs, and understanding the day-to-day responsibilities of working in a professional garage. His enthusiasm for the motor trade is truly shining through.
Caring, Creating, and Growing at Kidzproof Nursery
Abby has settled wonderfully into her placement at Kidzproof Nursery, where she supports young children through play-based learning, and creative activities. Her nurturing approach and positive attitude have already made her a valued member of the team.
Growing in Confidence Every Day
It’s inspiring to see how each student is embracing their placement, learning new skills, and making meaningful contributions to their workplaces. With ongoing support from our job coaches and placement providers, we’re confident this term will bring even more success stories.
A Note from the Team
“We couldn’t be prouder of how our interns have settled into their roles. Each placement offers a unique opportunity to build confidence, independence, and a bright future ahead.”
