Baroness Wilcox says: "It is a personal privilege to share in the success of these very capable young people and I think it is only right and proper that they should be the focus of today's celebrations. Everyone at Babington Business College should be very proud of this success. I am pleased to see that the work the college does in helping young people gain new skills reflects the Government's commitment to this cause."

I've got a great job, a great career opportunity and a real qualification that is mine for life. Add to this my WorldSkills success and I am very hopeful for my future!"
