Skills Development
Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
5/5
Yes i have undergone many online training courses aswell as face time courses and will be undergoing practical courses too. I have learnt so much already with my time here. i have built confidence as well as a stronger understanding of what it means to be a nursery Assistant from day to day.
Structure and Support
How well organised/structured is your programme?
3/5
I beilieve the programme has been amazing and i have not yet seen any issues in training or support. there were issues when organinsing some sessions as i was needed in work a few times and communication does not seem to be as strong with tutors and setting managment as it is between the tutors and the students.
I have also had a few issues when tring to arrange some face time calls but that is expected with the current pandemic.

How much support do you receive from your employer?
5/5
I am fully suppoerted by all that are involved. i do struggle at times however i am always confident to go to my tutor or assessor when im in need of assistance or if i do not understand something,Their general attitude is welcoming and they have not shown any signs of stress or unhappiness within the session or towards students.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
4/5
Any and all support i am needing as long as they are aware and i may ask for support they provide great,friendly and relible support. i can be ab bit behind on somethings but i have always been anble to catch up on time with their help and support.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
5/5
It helps me relise and understand how somethings are done and why they are done such as safegaurding and the in dpeth training of it. I am confident i apply all my new skills and knowledge to my settings and i feel as though it helps in all areas of my job.
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
5/5
I am unaware of any thing like this in my settings as we do not do any after school kind of clubs as we are open from 7:30am-6:00pm which is normally longer than an avarage school day. however we do enjoy ensuring that all the children thrive as much as possible duriong their time with us
Recommendations & Advice
Would you recommend Aspiration Training to a friend?
Yes
Why?
The support, quality of training and overall attitude towards work,students and the qualifacations are impecible. I have done many coursesm similar but this one has been my favourite one out of them all. i would like to thank Emma,Rhian and Sally from Aspirations Training for all your support and guidance this far.
What tips or advice would you give to others applying to Aspiration Training?
Only thing i would and could say is perhaps ensure that no matter what communication between the settings management is through them not the student as some times it can be fiddley and an inconvinence if the student has to go up and remind the managment that there is a session but they may still be in ratio, therefore they miss out on the session as it is for the safety of both child and staf that ratios are kept to the ratios. thankyou
