Business Development - Celebrating success

Busy Bees is running staff graduation days as part of its
investment in talent. Karen Faux reports.

A series of staff graduation days have delivered the wow factor for apprentices at the UK's biggest nursery group, Busy Bees. These events, which rolled out across the chain's settings in October and November, marked the successful completion of a range of apprenticeships and also conferred special awards, such as outstanding achievement and career progression.

Busy Bees strongly believes that investing in home-grown talent boosts retention, recruitment and leadership across the group. In line with this, it has seen 200 apprentices graduating this year, while 400 are currently engaged in advanced and intermediate apprenticeships. All its apprenticeships are provided in association with Skillsfirst Awards.
