“My daughter has just started primary school so I’m able to focus on myself and start a career. I didn’t pass my A Levels at school and I want a job where I can help people.
“I’m thinking by the time I graduate, I can really get a career now thanks to the course. I’ve always been a mum, I’ve always had jobs but not something that’s as worthwhile. “

“It’s harder to study as an adult because I’m working during the day too, but it’ll definitely be worth it in the long run. There’s never going to be a perfect time, so I just went for it.
“I’ve always loved cars. I work in the motor trade industry, not fixing cars at the moment but cleaning them as a Valeter. That’s why I’m doing a night course, so I can move into working on them.”
