Parents of Molly Fulton

Quantity Surveyor Apprenticeship

“As a parent, I wanted Molly to have a clear career path, and I wasn’t convinced A-levels would provide that. When we visited Leeds College of Building, it was relaxed, friendly, and career-focused.”

Brandon Perry

“I’m fuelled by responsibility, so this course gave me the autonomy to manage my own projects whilst having the safety net of guidance and support when needed. It’s the perfect blend challenge and mentorship. .”

Rye Kilburn
