Tune in to see Becky Kite from Partridge Homes Live on ITV Central News Tonight at 6pm

Today is a huge day in the lives of young people, with hundreds of thousands of teenagers across the UK receiving their GCSE results.
The indications from today's reports are that A*- C Grades have seen the sharpest decline since the exams were launched, with Girls increasing their lead over boys to 8.9 per cent.
As a business, we are huge supporters of taking youngsters straight from school and offering them an apprenticeship. In fact, we try to take on a new Apprentice every 12-18 months as we genuinely like to give young people the chance to excel within the workplace.
The majority of the most successful people that I know did not go down the College/University route and in fact went into work straight from school. By the time they would have been through further education they already have 5 years + advantage of real life work experience and qualifications on their side!
Apprentices have the same opportunities as employees, earning a weekly wage, gaining nationally recognised qualifications and also getting to work alongside experienced staff, this to me ticks all the boxes that a youngster would need.
We are delighted to have received a call today asking for our current Apprentice to appear Live on Itv Central News tonight at 6pm. Becky will be talking about the benefits that she has found since joining Partridge Homes last September at the age of 16.
Well done Becky, we will all be very proud watching you make your TV Debut tonight on the evening before your 17th Birthday!
If you are reading this as a Business Owner and have often considered taking on an Apprentice but not quite made the step, please feel free to contact me on 07540 462 033 and I will happily talk to you about our positive experiences.
I have rented with Partridge Homes for 5 years and I can recommend them to all. They are a truly wonderful family business, efficient and so professional.

Partridge Homes and in particular Charlotte and Nicky have been extremely helpful and professional in there approach to helping with our Buy to Let property. They coordinated all the viewings were excellent in providing feedback and kept us updated on a timely basis.
They were always professional with a very personable approach for both prospective tenants and ourselves. I would have no hesitation in recommending Partridge Homes to others.

I purchased my first house in August 2014, the team at Partridge were great and managed the whole process for me in a very efficient manner. I would definitely recommend Partridge Homes to anyone looking to buy in the area.

It's actually a pleasure to recommend Partridge Homes. I've used several Letting Agents over the last 15 years as a landlord and they are (by quite a distance ) honestly the best company I've used. It's quite rare to find an agent that will just do what's expected , Partridge Homes really went the extra mile and located an excellent tenant and are currently marketing another property and so far have had quality viewings and arranged everything. Keep up the good work

A BIG thank you for all of your help, time and kindness. You made a big difference in helping us as a family in selling our Parents house. It has been a hard time for all of us but you helped in any way you could.

We have dealt with Partridge homes since Jan 2015 and have found them to be professional and helpful in all aspects of our enquires. Paul has been most helpful when we have needed his support and help in resolving any issues we have had. Would recommend this company and there services to anyone seeking to buy or rent a property. A very good family run business highly recommended.

I was on the market with a previous Agent for 434 Days. I was recommended to contact Partridge Homes from my Solicitor. Within 6 Days of instructing Partridge's the property as Sold and the asking price of £299,950 was achieved. I would highly recommend anybody selling their property to make Partridge Homes your first point of call.
