Niven Rooprah, a Year 13 student, has successfully secured a position in the prestigious BBC Data Science Apprenticeship programme in collaboration with York St John University. This remarkable opportunity will enable Niven to embark on a journey of professional growth and development.

The apprenticeship is based in Salford and adopts a blended learning approach, combining remote instruction with on-site visits to the York St John campuses in York and London. The BBC generously covers all expenses related to accommodation and travel during these visits, ensuring Niven’s seamless participation in the program.

Notably, the government’s apprenticeship levy will fund Niven’s university fees, fully covering the cost of his degree. This invaluable support further enhances Niven’s educational journey.

We take great pride in Niven’s accomplishments thus far and extend our heartfelt wishes for his continued success in all his future endeavors.
