Pupils are laying the foundations for their future careers by taking part in a ground-breaking scheme to develop construction skills for youngsters in North Lanarkshire.
North Lanarkshire Council's Foundation Apprenticeship and Pathways Programmes are providing 115 secondary school kids with the chance to gain industry recognised qualifications and providing them with the skills they need to build their employment opportunities in a key growth sector.
The programme, in partnership with Tigers Construction Academy, will prepare the pupils for the world of work and help them to gain the knowledge and experience they will need to take on a construction role or apprenticeship.
