Zoe, who is in her first year of study for the ISRM qualification, received top assignment mark in Module 1, and Darren, in his second year, achieved similar success in Module 4 and the overall top assignment mark.

The Vale Council's Cabinet Member (Economic Development and Leisure), Cllr Mike Harvey, said: "The Council takes training very seriously and I'm thrilled to see both Darren and Zoe perform so well in this esteemed course."
