I have enjoyed my time doing maths at Springboard. I have learnt new things and now I can do more than I used too. Marion is a good teacher and explains things I don’t understand.

I recently completed my Retailer level 2 apprenticeship - my tutor was very helpful and helped me get a better understand at retail and what it requires. I passed, I was so nervous for my EPA and Jacey was very supportive. I am pleased to say that I have gained a full time job at Cash Converters. I would recommend if anyone is looking at apprenticeships - Springboard are top class!
