Dear Apprentice

Highlands and Skills Jersey hope this letter finds you safe and well. We have been very mindful of the challenges you and your employers are facing and we want to reassure you we are here to support.

We are currently in unprecedented times and understand that many of you may have concerns about your education and achievement of your qualifications particularly if you should you find yourselves without work placement or employment.

We would like to reassure you that you are all in the forefront of our minds and we are doing all we can to ensure your continued learning and secured achievement.

Unfortunately, until advised that it is safe for us all  to return to college, we are unable to confirm when practical observations may take place, we understand that this may cause you some anxiety particularly if your work placement is uncertain.

Please be assured that the college senior leadership team, Skills Jersey and Trackers are aware of this situation and are considering all options in which this can be achieved once we are reopened.

In the meantime, Trackers mentors are offering remote support to all apprentices and remain available via telephone or email. Your personal tutors at college will continue to work after the Easter holidays so you can access their support and guidance either via TEAMS, SKYPE, or MOODLE

Please continue to engage in online learning and try to complete as much of your qualification as possible, returning to your timetabled lessons in the new term.

Stay safe, look after yourself and your loved ones and we look forward to seeing you soon.

Yours Sincerely,
