Ada changed my life! I went to the sixth form college and have now just started my Degree Apprenticeship with JustEat. The lecturers’ support has been amazing and the industry volunteers help us to get job-ready. I feel lucky that I came across Ada and for the unique path into a tech career it has provided me.
