  • 1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:

    • I help to set up for the day ahead, help to run the shift smoothly throughout the day by either being on a station or area leading so flexing onto all of the stations to help them when they are busy.

  • 2. Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?

    • I am improving my skills through the shifts by learning why we do certain things a way and learning more ways to show confidence within myself.

    8/10
  • 3. To what extent do you enjoy your programme?

    • I really enjoy it now at the start not so much because I got passed around a bit because of needing to change who was helping me but since I have been paired up with Rosie she has been the most amazing help with skills and confidence.

    10/10
  • 4. How well organised/structured is your programme?

    • Better now they have shared the apprentices out so one person doesn't have more than they can handle.

    10/10
  • 5. How much support do you receive from your employer?

    • So much, she goes out of her way to make sure I understand what I am doing and have all the help I need. No matter what time of the day she is always helping me no matter what.
