A PLUMBING student at Burton and South Derbyshire College has secured a job following a work placement at a local business.

Tyler Hulse, a T Level Plumbing student at the college's Stephen Burke Construction Academy, is now in the second year of her qualification and began a placement with Alan Lowe Heating Services Ltd in November 2024.

She has already completed the required hours for her course and, impressed by her commitment and progress, Alan has offered Tyler a paid part-time role and confirmed plans to take her on as a gas apprentice once she completes her course in June 2026.

Alan has been a dedicated mentor throughout Tyler's placement, offering experience and guidance that has helped her develop essential skills for a future career in plumbing.
