“ Jay is a young lady and from a broken family, she has a background where her criminal record far exceeded anything she had ever accomplished academically. It became apparent that Jay was heading more towards a custodial sentence rather than into employment. She was put on a Tag as she was in line with a portion of anti-social activities in and around tower hamlets. After failing at a number of colleges, in particular one in the city, Jay was able to enroll with Polino for a Level 2 certificate in Employability and Developing enterprise skills , through Polino’s specialist approach to even the most troubled learners, Jay received very strong support through out and was able to beat her court case and come off her police tag in December 2015 .
Jay with Polino’s support was able to secure herself a work placement opportunity with FBMF which then led her to secure her first ever job, which far surpasses a criminal conviction on a custodial sentence. Jay and her family are over the moon for her being integrated into society with Polino’s support. ”

“ I am very passionate about a job in the music industry. I have never had a job before so for me to gain employment in the music sector, I would be achieving my dream. I enjoy this course because it gave me the chance to get involved in the business side of the music industry, I have met pioneers of the underground music scene who have helped me better my production skills with studio sessions. I have met with artists that I can now network with to send my productions to and have them vocal the production. I have been on sets of music videos which has helped me to understand how music video shoots run. Polino has made all this possible ”
