FOUNDATION APPRENTICESHIPS

Fairway Fife is excited to be working in partnership with Fife Employability to offer Foundation Apprenticeship work experience placements for senior phase students studying Social Services and Healthcare (SCQF Level 6).

Through this partnership, students take part in Fairway Fife’s welcoming induction training and gain hands-on experience working with individuals with disabilities within a supportive and inclusive workplace setting. With guidance from our experienced facilitators, they build valuable skills and confidence that will support them in their future education and careers.

Our Foundation Apprenticeship students bring fresh ideas and enthusiasm to our service, creating real benefits for our members — helping to boost social skills, confidence, and independence. We’re proud to be part of their learning journey and to see the positive impact they’re making in our community.
