What our painting & plastering students are saying
"One of the best things was talking with my tutor and understanding what it is really like to work on a building site."
“I was really pleased with the course. I had a great tutor, classmates and the sessions were really practical and informative. I’ve learned about painting techniques like cutting in, preparation is the key and tips on getting the best finishes.”
