Now that the ESPFA students are settling into remote learning for this new term, let’s celebrate some of the student’s success from the previous term. In a year of overcoming challenges and where the students have had to be flexible in the way they study, we are so pleased with the way that all the ESPFA students have knuckled down and shown an aptitude for learning despite all the distractions in the current climate.
One thing that students have had to cope with this year is the changeover to online learning when classroom-based teaching wasn’t possible. Max Connor, the area manager for the Midlands has praised the student’s positive way in which the students have dealt with this change. He said: “In these strange times we find ourselves in, our remote learning has been a great success and for students to keep going and show the majority is a credit to both themselves and also our tutors & coaches. Within each of the clubs, the morale is high and with everyone doing well on the educational aspect of the programme, they cannot also wait for the football season to resume.
He continued: “I can understand that remote lessons are all new and for some students, may take a while to get used to, but for the selected few who have been picked by their tutors, it demonstrates how well they have adapted and knuckled down with their BTEC work, which I hope their hard work shows in their grades. Well done to all the students nominated by their tutors for student of the Half-term and I look forward to seeing you back in training when we can.”
BELPER TOWN – BRODY HORSLEY
Brody Horsley of Belper Town has been nominated as their student of the half-term by his tutor, Tom Anderson. Tom has been impressed with Brody’s willingness to get involved in class discussions and always taking care in the work he produces. He said: “I have chosen Brody for his continued excellent work rate in the classroom and during training. He continues to contribute within sessions and produces top level work in his assignments. I hope he continues this level of work in the following term.”

Rushall Olympic student Lucas Buckley has been named as their student of the half-term for producing some excellent work over the past the half-term.

He is a well-mannered and polite young man, who not only has talent on the pitch but is an impressive student with potential to excel at Higher Education level.
