Last week 15 construction learners had the opportunity to visit St Modwen’s Locking Mosslands site.

St Modwen are one of our Construction Career Excellence Hubs partners, which sees them:

• Co-design training provision
• Create an inspirational learning experience for our students
• Provide the skills training required for the construction industry.

Learners from across the construction provision were fortunate to be invited to the site tour, with learners studying brickwork and carpentry in attendance.

St Modwen have also committed their support to our construction provision, by providing 28 learners with a three-day onsite experience, from March.

Subject Area Manager for Construction, Richard Hanney, said: “I’d like to thank St Modwen for this fantastic opportunity.

“Our learners really enjoyed the experience and having the opportunity to see a real site in action is going to really benefit their learning. Learners have also mentioned how inspired they were by the visit, and this is why it is so critical for us to connect industry with education through our Career Excellence Hubs.

“We look forward to seeing our learners gaining valuable work experience and seeing them grow their skills through this fantastic partnership.”
