Best thing I ever did: James Baxter, 17, Felixstowe

1 min read

She told me about Nacro East Anglia's e2e course in Ipswich, which did mechanics, so I thought I'd get some qualifications.

I thought it would be like going back to school again, but it was totally different. I was mostly doing practical work on electrical currents and car engines. Every day I learned more and got more qualifications out of it. So for somebody who left school with nothing, the best thing I ever did was to come to Nacro, stay here, work hard and achieve all these qualifications. All I need now is a job.
