Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
1/5
I attend Furness college full time, I do 2 days in the AMTC and 3 days in the workshops (copper box)
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
1/5
I think that my course hasn’t been thought out well as they have sent us to two separate colleges (AMTC, copperbox) and neither of them communicate and the work load is far too much for the very little time that I am in both
