Zuhair Zafar
Design, Surveying and Planning T level
“The lovely Employability Team at college helped me find my work placement with the Morgan Sindall Group at their site in Woodhouse. The project involved a school extension, and I joined as a placement Quantity Surveyor.”
Parents of Molly Fulton

“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
