After a busy start to the term, I can finally get round to thanking @Donnie_scqf for attending our inservice day to deliver whole staff training on all things SCQF.

We are aiming to go from 🥉to🥈within the new academic year & have Pupil Ambassador training in September! 🤝🏻

Foundation Apprenticeships are at SCQF level 6 - the same level as a Higher - & provide industry insight that pupils won't get in a classroom alone...
