Graham Ayrton, business development manager at Sparsholt College Group, said: “Our students came back with a much clearer picture on how their futures could look. To have access to such a diverse mix of construction insights with a site so close by is invaluable and stepping outside of the classroom for a practical job like construction is key.”
As part of PAH’s commitment of “promoting the construction industry to the next generation of builders”, students were guided around the development and gained hands-on experience of the industry.
Mark Cuttriss, director at PAH Building & Construction Ltd added: “Construction is the foundation of everything in the building industry and that is why it is so important for us to do our bit in educating the next generation.
“It was certainly encouraging to see how enthusiastic the students were on the day and to have a great group of men and women asking questions on how they can further their prospects in construction.”
