Success Stories
Many learners have progressed from our programmes into education support roles, further qualifications and sustainable employment. Their journeys inspire us every day.
““Before the course I had given up my job as I was physically unable to do it due to health reasons. The Aspire course was amazing, and I felt really well supported. I had lost confidence in my abilities and was feeling pretty deflated about myself, but the course boosted my confidence, and I realised I still had a lot to offer despite my disability. I learned so many valuable skills that I am now using every day in my new role, especially the how to manage behaviour that challenges skills, as I’m often paired with children with SEN. My long-term goal is to continue to better myself as a TA and be a great asset to whichever school and team I work with.””
— Emma, Former Level 2 Learner
““The program was delivered brilliantly. They were so encouraging, enthusiastic and supportive. It was the first time I had done anything like this for myself since having my first child 6 years ago. I was nervous to start with, but actually after the first hour I felt at home and relaxed. I knew immediately the course was 100% right for me and over the 2 weeks, my confidence continued to grow each day. My dedication to the course was unlike any dedication I’ve given in the past. Even when I was at University, I wasn’t as enthusiastic or disciplined as I was with this course. I was upset when it ended. I was part of a wonderful group of women who I am still in contact with, and my tutor was the best I have ever had.””
— Clare, Former Level 2 Learner
