4. BEST COLLEGE PERFORMER – ALFRED SEIVWRIGHT – LEVEL 2 INTERIOR SYSTEMS / BELLWAY / TCL / BARKING RIVERSIDE
‘I’m really happy to win this award, thanks to K10, Bellway, TCL and Flower Skills for their help.

I try to put effort into all elements of my apprenticeship as every day gone by without trying is a day wasted’ – Alfred
‘He’s fitted in well with the team and he shows a lot of enthusiasm, he is a conscientious worker and is always eager to keep on learning. Bellway are keen to promote apprenticeships and we wish Alfred all the best with the rest of his course.’ – Stewart Finn, Senior Site Manager, Bellway.

5. BEST COMPLETING APPRENTICE – JABARI BROWN / CREST NICHOLSON / BRANDON HOUSE
‘If I didn’t work for K10 I wouldn’t be where I am now. They have a great team and I would recommend anyone who wants to do an apprenticeship to join the K10 programme. Within the space of a year, I went from doing Level 2 Dry Lining to Construction Management which shows anything is possible’ – Jabari
‘The best way to sum up the importance of Jabari is a quote from Napoleon Hill, “If you can’t do great things, do small things in a great way.” Jabari understands that even the smallest contributions can make the biggest difference in a team, and that is what Jabari is. A true team player’ – Ethan Deal, Site Manager

I would like to take this opportunity to congratulate Lisa on this award and hope she keeps up the good work’ – Colin Young
