hi guys, just been surfing the web looking for more difficult questions that the plastering diploma reqiures to ask my students, and i came acrosse this site, ive got over 20 years knowledge in this field, been self employed in this trade for to long and decided to hang up the tools, and teach plastering instead. ive got the nvqs, a1, and pttls, so if i can help you out with any questions you have, ime quite confident ile answer them. thanks j.

Hi and welcome..

What level diploma are you teaching and who do you work for I work in the west Midlands I am am the head of the plastering at a college round here.

Have the college supplied you with any teaching materials

before we start, hi, and first , diplomas are worth less than the paper they are printed on. i teach 16+ yr olds in solid and fibrous plasterwork level 1+2, at a councils training facility, and i'm also the plastering instructor, and assess on-site nvqs, when required, when i first joined this site i was looking for more challenging questions to ask my students than the diplomas require, to get them ready for that big wide world out there, there is no better experience or knowledge than site work itself which ive been accostomed to for a long time now, and dont plan on going back, ime currently half way through my pgce and as i said before, if i can help anybody with any questions that they have, feel free to ask. hope this answers youre question. happy new year.

Happy New Year to yourself J Davies..

happy new year to you to whitebeam,thanks for the reply.
