Juniper Training Bewertungen 

In my experience, working at Juniper Training was the worst job I have ever had as a teacher. In my opinion, this institution seemed more focused on finances than on education, student well-being, or staff support.

Where I worked, they crammed so many students into a single classroom that there weren’t even enough chairs and desks for everyone. The lack of proper ventilation was shocking—my classroom had no windows that could be opened. In the winter, illness spread rapidly, and we were constantly infecting each other. There were a lot of absences, with many students and staff suffering from fever and severe coughs. I was one of them.

The emotional well-being of students appeared to be overlooked. Many learners struggled with depression and anxiety, yet they were placed in the same classes as students who had been excluded from other schools due to behavioural issues. There was little structured support for these vulnerable children, and teachers and staff were left to handle extremely challenging situations alone. This created what felt like a toxic environment, where vulnerable students and teachers were left without sufficient support.

In the autumn, winter, and spring months, class sizes range from 20 to 25 students, and as a teacher, I had to support well over 100 learners every week. During mock exam periods, as an English teacher, I had to mark hundreds of GCSE and Functional Skills papers without any extra time or assistance. The workload was overwhelming, and I was forced to work excessive overtime with little to no support.

During the hiring process, crucial details were not made clear. They didn’t specify the number of learners I would be responsible for or that there was no probation period—staff signed a contract immediately. At Juniper Training, this meant that if an employee wanted to resign, they had a two-month notice period, but if the company decided to let them go, they only had to give one week's notice. I personally found this level of unfairness unacceptable. When I decided to leave, I felt pressured to stay, as I was told that I would not receive a reference if I left.
If you care about education, your mental health, or fair working conditions, I personally would not recommend Juniper Training. And most importantly, I would never take my child there.

Amazing team, helped me get my apprenticeship had been searching for 9 months before them and got one within 6 weeks of being with them.

My positive experience at juniper training is that all the staff have a friendly approach towards us students and are willing to give us extra support when needed.in my time at juniper training I have a better attendance than I did in the other juniper centre as I'm enjoying learning how to become a roofer.

Was supported throughout full traineeship and was offered a job in the end. Brilliant experience and had a tutor who was very supportive and a great person to have a laugh with (jackie)

Been the best support nothing more I could ask for, the team are lovely and bring out your potential, thanks again❤️

the things that made my course worth while, was the tutor helping me do the assingments and also helping me when i need it

I think overall it was a great experience I was able to learn new things and meet new people. I developed new skills that I never had and I am now able to be more confident with talking to new people I really enjoyed this experience and had a great tutor that wanted me to succeed and for that reason i did.

Juniper Training is by far the best working experience I have received, they are super helpful, and would definitely recommend it to anyone, while I was on this training course for 9 week, they were outstanding and very kind, even got a job out of there opportunities. I am very grateful for everything.

I received a lot of support during my traineeship which gave me confidence and reassurance which i feel like is very important, i always know who i can talk to if i have any concerns and i am able to complete the course i wanted to do!

my daughter started juniper in December after struggling with school and not getting the course she wanted after being put on a totally different course at collage i wasn't sure what her other options was till finding out about juniper and speaking to a member off staff there that i thought this could be the right way forward for my daughter and further education for her self and she seems to be enjoying her self and getting on well there
