Kerry LeMart is my tutor for my early year educator apprenticeship! She has helped me so much! Set to finish my level 3 soon thanks to her help!

Kerry has been a wonderful tutor, she gives great advice and is always happy to help with any question I’ve had! My apprenticeship has been wonderful and Kerry’s support has been phenomenal!

i really enjoyed my apprenticeship, the websites really easy to follow and workshops are brilliant and really engaging.

HI, I'd just like to leave a review on our positive experience with Shaping Lives. We as a setting, have used this company many times over the years. Navdeep the senior development manager is great at what she does, she amazingly clear about what is involved with the courses and how the funding works. Navdeep will also constantly check in to students are happy and if any further support is required. The tutors have good communication with the students and everything seems to work pleasantly well.

Deborah my tutor was a great support and answered any questions I had and supported me through my EPA giving me confidence.

Excellent structure to the apprenticeship programme, ensuring the learning are not only learning also are making progress and are engaged. Super friendly but professional with the support and training provided. The whole team works together collaboratively and respectfully in a professional manner. I wish i found this organisation earlier to work for.

At the beginning of my apprenticeship I was worried I was really going to struggle with my learning difficulties until I was passed on to Andy who was very helpful and supportive setting me Cognitive assessments to provide me with the best support possible through my apprenticeship. He regularly checks in to ensure I’m getting along with it and reminds me to keep up with it. Which was helpful if I didn’t understand anything and he is always on hand to answer any questions I have. He also ensured that my personal tutor was aware of any additional support I need.
Thank you Andy I really appreciate the support you have given with in the beginning on my apprenticeship.

I have been with Shaping Lives for around 8 months now and I highly recommend them!
I receive direct messages from Andy, he goes above and beyond to ensure I am supported and given the best help possible when it comes to my apprenticeship. He makes sure I am not struggling or having any difficulties throughout my course. He checks in - making sure I am okay monthly / bimonthly and it’s nice to know extra support is there if needed. He regularly speaks with my personal tutor, discussing what support i require and if anything needs adjusting or tweaking to help me with all different aspects throughout my apprenticeship. He often gives me reminders to sign on to cognassist which I find very helpful as this is something I forget to do. I appreciate Andy’s messages and Shaping Lives for all of the support, advice, help and guidance I am given while completing my apprenticeship with them

Andy has been a such a polite person and patient by helping me with my math and English additional learning and making sure everything was put in place perfectly for me thank you

I love how much support they give! Anytime i need help i txt my tutor and in an instant i receive support with anything I do not understand, workshops are lovely and they support with maths and english aswell

I’ve had a really positive experience with the Shaping Lives Apprenticeship programme. The support throughout has been fantastic and has helped me grow in confidence and develop my skills.

A special thank you to my skills trainer, Sharon Gladman, who has been incredibly supportive, patient, and encouraging. She always takes the time to help and genuinely wants her learners to succeed. I’m very grateful for her guidance.

great at helping and suppporting you. but can be slow sometimes at replying

I really enjoyed my workshops with Sarah Fox. She explained everything so I could take it in and provided a relaxed and comfortable environment, giving me the confidence to join in with group discussions. Sarah always replied to my emails with a fast response and was very supportive. I passed my level 3 yearly years with distinction.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5-Star Review
Sara Fox has been an outstanding tutor during my Level 3 Early Years Educator workshops. She has truly been a pillar of knowledge, inclusiveness, and integrity. Always welcoming everyone with a big smile, she creates a safe and open space where all perspectives and opinions are valued.
Sara is consistently supportive—always just an email away—and incredibly effective at helping to resolve issues with clarity and care. In such a short period of time, I have learned an incredible amount, and her guidance has left a lasting impact on me.
Highly recommended as a university lecturer. An inspiring educator who genuinely makes a difference.

I have had a great time with shaping lives they have taught me so much that I needed to know to come this far in my career

I am currently working through my Level 3 Early Years Educator apprenticeship and I couldn’t recommend this programme enough! My tutor, Sophie Hampshire, has been nothing short of supportive, kind and a good listening ear for me during times when I’ve needed an extra boost. I am so happy with how everything is going and with the support I have received thus far. Thank you, Sophie! 🌟

I am currently studying my Level 3 Early Years qualification with Shaping Lives. I am enjoying the qualification. The structure of the qualification is based on online learning, workshops, and completing independent work. You are also allocated a tutor, mine is Angela Williams. She has been fantastic and so supportive.

I attend a coffee morning for sharing life's organised by Louise Bromhall. the morning was lovely and provided nursery settings with the opportunity to network and share experiences and discuss ideas for challenges we all face in the sector. Louise hosted the session well and provided lot's of direction and support throughout. Thank you

I am doing my level 3 early years educator apprenticeship with shaping lives and i am really enjoying it and receiving lots of help and support along the way!

I have been completing my Level 5 for nearly 6 months now. I have Angela Williams as my tutor and feel incredibly fortunate to be able to be guided by her whilst I complete my Apprenticeship. The layout of the Apprenticeship is brilliant, with a wide variety of formats and different ways to learn the information. The guidance and support is abundant and you feel so supported and feel like your development professionally and personally is genuinely at the forefront of the skill building. I have thoroughly enjoyed my apprenticeship so far and I look forward to all that is coming up.
