Writtle College
Best opportunity for success
Louise Shepherd is 19 and is in her first year of an Apprenticeship in Horse Care and Management (NVQ Level 2) at Writtle College.
“I felt the support offered by Writtle College and their links to the equine industry would give me the best opportunity to succeed and achieve this qualification.
“I enjoy all aspects of my Apprenticeship; the training I receive has helped me improve my riding ability both in flatwork and jumping. My stable management and horse-care knowledge have also developed giving me more confidence in my own abilities. I receive consistent support from Writtle, which makes my Apprenticeship both enjoyable and educational.
“My long-term aim is to become a qualified Instructor, and with the education, support and training I have received so far from Writtle and my placement, I feel that I am on my way to achieving this.
“Having enjoyed this Apprenticeship so much, I would also consider continuing onto my NVQ Level 3 when I have completed my Level 2.”
