Eastleigh College has moved to online learning, as such campuses are closed to the vast majority of learners. The College remains open (including over the Easter holiday period) for 16-18 learners of key workers, and those learners with an Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP). However, for both categories, learners are asked to stay at home where it is safe to do so. Consistent with public health advice, learners and staff are asked to follow public health guidance and the steps outlined via the 'read more' button.
The plumbing industry provides services mostly to construction, with clients ranging from industrial and commercial to retail and domestic. However, there are also opportunities to work outside of construction with the Government, education, and health services. Plumbers will usually work on projects involving heating and ventilation, hot and cold water supply, service and maintenance and water, sanitation and draining systems. The industry is subject to influence by technological changes, such as the introduction of new environmentally friendly processes. Most employees in this sector are either self-employed or work for small businesses.
Generally studied by 16-18 year olds as an alternative to A-Levels.
