Educational visit at Butterfield…

15 Students from Barnfield Construction College, Luton visited the Butterfield and Business Technology Park as part of their CLAC programme. The CLAC programme offers pupils the chance to gain a taste of ‘real work’ in a supported way, and to lay the foundations for a post 16 apprenticeship whilst retaining the full range of other options for future training and study.

Michael Forster of Easter group provided the year 11 construction young apprentices with a talk around the site model followed by a presentation, detailing the environmental design and responsibility to construction opportunities throughout this project. The students also visited the 90,000 sq.ft MTL international head office, which is near completion.
