It’s going to be a happy Easter for Progress Sports student John Munroe as he will start his apprenticeship with local school Halsnead Community Primary in Whiston after the holiday period.

John had been on a placement 3 days a week at the school whilst also studying for his BTEC Level 2 in Sport at our Prescot centre and was also a key member of the Progress Sports football team that compete in the Merseyside college league.

The school were very impressed with John and have agreed to take him on an apprenticeship scheme. The head teacher has confirmed that he had earned his place and highlighted his enthusiasm, hard work and attitude that convinced them to offer him the position.
