“Our apprentice Martin has made a huge difference to the school. He is absolutely fantastic and is a credit to Weston College. Staff at the Business Enterprise Centre are great - they come in regularly to assess Martin and are very professional.”

“Our Weston College apprentices are bright, have great attitudes and are open to new ideas. It’s been an absolute delight acting as their mentor and I would highly recommend other businesses to take on people doing this form of training and learning.”

John Mayer, Director, TaxAssist Accountants, Weston-super-Mare

“Weston College apprentices have made a vital difference to our business – without them we would struggle. They have important skills that help us grow and they receive excellent training from very experienced staff at the College. During the busiest times of the day in our kitchen, the extra professional support provided by our enthusiastic apprentices makes all the difference.”

Gemma Stacey, Manager, The Cove bar and restaurant, Weston-super-Mare

“It’s been great working with the College’s Business Enterprise Centre. Staff have communicated with us brilliantly and are efficient and reliable. The advantage to working with BEC is that they understand our business and what we are looking for in terms of staff.”

Richard Van-de-Velde, Managing Director of Heritage Estate Agents, which operates across North Somerset

“Taking on apprentices from Weston College has allowed me to recruit stylists. Hiring from within means our employees know our system and are trained to a high standard, which makes my business more successful. We currently have nine apprentices and they help us remain a top salon.”
