Great experience learning with babington (paragon skills)
My tutor Emma was very supportive throughout my journey earning my L3 business admin qualification. Emma provided regular support and feedback, answering any questions I had and making sure I understood my assignments. She ensured I reached my full potential, achieving a Distinction in my EPA.
Thank you, Alex!
Alex CG is a brilliant mentor, to whom I owe much of my qualification success. Alex's erudition and experience as a tutor ensured that no stone was left unturned in preparation for my assessment. She has also been hugely helpful with my coursework, provided further context and support - warm, friendly, and a consummate pro - thanks so much Alex, truly!

It was a great pleasure to be mentored by Jordan. I recently received my distinction result in L3 Business Administration. Thanks for your patience!
Also, special thanks to Samantha for imparting some good tips for my presentation to be sucessful.

I have recently completed my Level 3 qualification and am pleased to share my positive experience. Throughout the programme, my tutor, Jordan Campbell, provided outstanding support and guidance. His knowledge, encouragement, and commitment were key in helping me achieve a distinction in my final assessment.
Beyond academic support, Jordan equipped me with practical skills and helped build my confidence in the workplace. His mentorship has left me feeling well prepared to take on future challenges.
I would highly recommend Babington to anyone seeking professional development, and I am sincerely grateful to Jordan for his dedication and support throughout my learning journey.

I have had a wonderful experience with Dawn Tagney
I have had a wonderful experience with Babington. Over the past year, Dawn has been a constant source of help, guidance, and encouragement. She has supported me through every stage, checking in on my progress, and make sure I always felt confident in what I was doing.
Her patience and understanding have made such a big difference, especially during times when I felt unsure or overwhelmed. Dawn has gone above and beyond to make my learning experience enjoyable and meaningful, and I genuinely appreciate the effort she has put into helping me grow.
I’m extremely grateful for everything she has done for me this year, and I couldn’t have asked for a better person to support me on this journey.
Thank you Dawn

I recently completed my Level 3 Business Administration apprenticeship and achieved a Pass, and I couldn't have done it without the support of my trainer Emma. Her Guidance, encouragement and clear explanations made the entire journey a lot easier. She was always patient, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in my progress. I am truly grateful for their support and would highly recommend Emma to anyone starting an apprenticeship.

I joined an apprenticeship back in April 2024 and after a little dip of changing tutors at the start once I was being tutored by Martin Sharpe, I was given the support and guidance to complete my qualification. The personal support I was given helped me achieve not only passing but gaining a double distinction in my EPA which would not have been possible without the support from my tutor

my trainer geoffrey sexton was a great help with my apprenticeship work, couldn’t thank him enough for all his help on the process. 5 stars from me
Level 3 Business Administration success
I undertook Level 3 Business Admin apprenticeship and managed to achieve a distinction. I want to say a special thank you to Emma Smith for being the most supportive and encouraging coach throughout the whole learning and EPA period. As a coach, Emma provided me with sufficient resources throughout my development progress and guided me to the right direction through thorough feedback sessions, mock trials and interactive practices. I appreciate all the time and effort she put towards my qualification
Dawn Tagney
Dawn was my coach throughout my apprenticeship and i feel without her i wouldnt have achieved a distinction, always happy to help and explain and helped me to really understand my learning.
Thank you!
Another year working with Babington and Geoff Sexton, can't thank Geoff enough for all of his support, guidance and patience with my apprentices. Geoff has been a consistent support and I will miss seeing him weekly when my team all pass with distinctions!
Geoff Sexton
My trainer Geoff helped me achieve a distinction today and I am over the moon, the help I have received from my trainer and Babington has helped me push towards my ultimate goals and I cant be more chuffed. I have gotten the best advice from my trainer and they have pushed me enough to ensure I pass my End point assessment. Moreover, Geoff has been a great and friendly trainer and I am more than happy I had the pleasure to be his student. Thanks
My Apprenticeship experience
My tutor Emma was incredible supportive through my entire apprenticeship course. Everything was laid out very Cleary and it was only thanks to her guidance that I was able to achieve the mark I did. I am very thankful. The Business Admin Course help develop my skills an amazing amount, and have given me a great start working for a business.
Excellent experience
The support and training received from Babington was first class at every stage. My Level 5 apprenticeship journey has helped me immeasurably both as a professional and an individual.
Marc has been the best tutor a learner could ask for. Supportive and knowledgeable every step of the way.
Emma Taylor
My high rating is down to my fantastic tutor Emma Taylor. I have never experienced someone so down to earth, consistent and knowledgeable when completing an NVQ, and couldn't thank her enough for everything she has done.
Emma's approach to teaching students is so personalised as she took the time to figure out my way of learning and adapted my assignments to this.
Emma Taylor you are brilliant.
Jordan Campbell
Jordan was a great tutor - very approachable, knowledgeable, and always willing to help. He consistently made himself available for meetings whenever I needed support, and his guidance made a real difference to my learning experience.
He created a positive and supportive environment that helped me feel more confident and motivated during the course. His ability to explain the content clearly and relate it to real-world situations was particularly helpful.
Thank you, Jordan, for all your support and encouragement throughout the course. It was very much appreciated.
Even to this day the experience I had…
Even to this day the experience I had working as a Skills Coach for Babington has traumitised me. I cant even work for another employer because of the way I was treated. One minute I was told we will support you for something, the next minute I was pulled in over my performance figures when previously they were ok. I think we were just treated like a number rather than a human being. I was made to feel like I was the problem, because management didnt want to look at themselves. I see they are continually looking for Skills Coaches, (high turnover) what a shock. I think I gave it my very best shot, but it was never good enough due to the sheer amount of coaches leaving all the time.
