What our parents say

“My son Josh studied at the academy for four years. He thrived and excelled whilst there. The staff & mentors dedication to the learners was amazing. They encouraged and helped Josh to get good results. Josh has been doing a welding apprenticeship since finishing The JCB Academy at The Welding Institute in Cambridge, he’s just completed his first year. He was offered three apprenticeships when finishing 6th form. I’m so proud of him his hard work and dedication. Thanks to the staff and mentors who helped Josh to succeed along the way.”

“The long hours and hard work have paid off on GCSE results day…I’m a very proud parent. The staff at The JCB Academy are so dedicated to bringing the best out of the pupils. Thanks to you all for making the quiet, shy boy who arrived two years ago into the confident young man he is today.”

What our former learners say

2017 UK apprentice of the year, Holly Broadhurst – BEng (Hons) EngTech MiMechE
Holly studied at The Academy from 2010-2012 and then at the sixth form 2012-2014

“The key difference for me was that the learning at the academy was not based in a textbook; everything that you learned was for a purpose and you saw that from the real-life examples that were shown through the sponsoring companies. The beauty of this way of learning was that you gained real-life experience within global companies, making you ready to be integrated into them in the future.

I know that all the aspirations I now have would not have been possible without the learning, support and encouragement that I received from The JCB Academy.”
