Ezra Crichton

Ezra completed the first year of the Building programme as a Year 12 student. He then returned in Year 13 to complete the second year, which he says is much more in-depth. “I found the first year of the course really good and wanted to get a bit more experience. My aim is to get a building apprenticeship when I finish school and this is a way of gaining more skills and confidence.”

Ezra says that the programme has been one of the best experiences he’s had at school. “The tutors here know their stuff and teach us well. We get to use all sorts of machinery, as well as learning how to sketch and interpret building plans. We then get to put into practice the theory we learn in the classroom.”
