Mulberry Bush Nursery Group have been working with Bury College for a number of years, hiring and training childcare Apprentices. The partnership has provided learners with amazing opportunities and resulted in thriving careers.
Adult learners on our Multi Skills Level 1 Award have been supported with a free Skills Kit that includes key items like a tool kit and a drill to help enhance their learning.
Free Skills Kits are available for most of our adult courses and include materials and equipment to support learners with studies and allows them to carry out practical elements of the course.
