“During the first stages of the Raising Attainment Pilot, we have seen all of our pupils grow in confidence. Already, the feedback from pupils has been great, with one saying, ‘I thought I was going to leave school and have nothing to do and nowhere to go. Working through this Foundation Apprenticeship has shown me that I am really good with my hands, and now I’d really like to go into a trade’ – we couldn’t ask for a better result!”
Rachel Gabellone, Employability Project Officer and Assessor, Fife Council
