Being in a class of 50 it is difficult for teachers to work 1 to 1 with students but they are always there to answer and questions when needed.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?

At the minute, there isn't too much benefit as we are learning the foundations of the various courses. However, as we progress through the years our course will become more valuable
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)

There is an endless amount of activities available. There is a social night every first Friday of the month with subsidised drinks, various sports clubs and teams and many other clubs and events.
