“Aspire advertised, shortlisted and pre-screen interviewed a number of Apprentice candidates before sending 6 finalists to us for a formal interview. We were that blown away by their enthusiasm and drive, we decided to employ 4 even though we had initially only planned to employ 2!”

“I enjoyed the discussions and presentations a lot as we were able to share best practice with colleagues”

Hari Mehlawat, Employability Tutor, January 2019

“Having Aspire deliver our Apprenticeship training in-house is a massive benefit for us. It means we don’t lose that member of staff for the day and enables vital duties such as answering the phone and replying to e-mails”.

David started as an apprenticeship at St Francis RC Primary.

As well as assisting the delivery of PE, David leads after school clubs and activities. Once a month, Aspire Tutors visit David to deliver the Level 3 Teaching Assistant Qualification.

“Aspire has provided me with the opportunity to get paid experience working in a school whilst also achieving a qualification that will set me up for a career in education”.
