Good on him. Welcome to an ever changing industry.
Thank you. He can't wait to get amongst it.

Maybe his interest is down to all the good things his Dad's told him about electricians he's met along the way :)

And thank you for the DM's. Very much appreciated

Don't let him believe that we all have a second car like a ferrari and use £50 notes as loose change. Those days are well gone lol.
Well he does want a Ferrari...

It's more to do with how personable a bunch Sparks are in my opinion and the conversations I have had.

In my time doing this I have spoken to lots of different trades. I have got on the best with Sparks and Tilers - they seem to be the most content with their careers (lining myself up there for counteracting arguments from other forum members :D)

Plumbers however...:ROFLMAO:

saw this and though of you / your son...


Thanks for that.

This is the kind of thing he had to cope with. The test states that you only have 5 seconds to come up with an answer too so there's pressure.

There are also slides that have no numbers so you have to say 'nothing' as an answer. But for someone who is nervous they are going to be thinking "Well is there are a number? Are they trying to catch me out?" As well as the other instances where they deliberately make one number look like another one (5 and 6, 1 and 7).

I'm so glad its over for him and he can crack on smashing his GCSE's. He's that looking forward to starting his apprenticeship I don't think he'll be having much of a Summer break this year.

Final Update!

So we spent a few days 'practicing' Ishihara tests online in preparation for his re-test yesterday evening. Really pleased to say he smashed the test with 100%.

Thanks for all your responses, advice and encouragement. It's really appreciated.

My lad's absolutely buzzing and looking forward to starting his career:)
