My first group of ITE students are about to start their probation year this week. So excited for them, and can’t wait to hear how they all get on.

Good luck to everyone one #SQAResultsDay. First one in almost 20 years where I’ve had no skin in the game, which is really odd! Just remember, #NoWrongPath
