Training 2000’s Engineering Schools Department is celebrating after its GCSE students achieved a 92 per cent pass rate, which was 9 per cent up from last year and included five A* grades.
The training provider has been delivering engineering GCSE’s in conjunction with local schools for more than twelve years and this is the department’s most successful year, with two thirds of the group achieving grades A*-B.
Mark Greenhalgh, Engineering Schools Department team leader, commented: “I am absolutely delighted for all of our learners and am thrilled that all of their hard work and dedication has paid off. We had a great bunch of young people in this cohort and they worked very well with the engineering team to get the grades that they deserve.
“I am pleased to report that 25 per cent of this year’s engineering Apprenticeship intake has come directly from the schools department, which is not only a positive step towards their career of choice, but also every credit to the enthusiasm and commitment of my team here at Training 2000.”
Over a two-year period, 95 pupils from 11 local schools visited the training provider’s dedicated engineering training centre in Blackburn to complete a Young Apprenticeship in engineering, providing them with the opportunity to pursue industry-specific vocational training alongside the national curriculum. Participating schools include Hollins Technology College in Accrington, Pleckgate High School in Darwen, Corpus Christi in Preston and Our Lady’s Catholic High School, also in Preston.
Sixteen-year-old, Ryan Worthington, from Our Lady’s Catholic High School achieved a GCSE grade AA and commented: “I really enjoyed my time on the Young Apprenticeship programme with Training 2000 and learnt lots of new and interesting things about engineering. All of the staff were very helpful and make sure that you do things right to help with the progression of your learning. The Young Apprenticeship was something I looked forward to each week and it has given me a great head start in my new career as an engineer.”
