When I am out driving I enjoy every minute.
Return for a secound run even loading it and then going back out. Didn't enjoy English and maths sat in a class room all day is not for me

5/5
Loading of trailers. Daily checks of all equipment i use that day. Passing my class 2 so definitely driving a hgv. Scanning items to be delivered never used the hand held scanners before. Delivering to shops and how the work in store. Tacho graph I am still learning but getting there now we are using them everyday.
Structure and Support
How well organised/structured is your programme?
2/5
I think it could be set out better at the beginning to let.you know what you need to work on first. But now English and maths as been taking out of the apprenticeship it gives you more time learning what you really need to be learning.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
5/5
Got a lot.of support at the beginning becuase it was too much.
I have had help all way through my apprenticeship deputies have been great and Lizzi as been great organising everything.

Been great helps a lot. Like I said they sort things out very quick so you do not feel stressed and are always there for you.
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
