Apprenticeships

An apprenticeship programme provides an individual with an opportunity to train in a particular industry and gain a National Recognised Qualification, whilst receiving a salary as an employee of a company.

In our recent Ofsted inspection our Apprenticeship provision was rated Outstanding with Ofsted inspectors stating that “Apprentices develop an extensive range of skills and knowledge and many extend and deepen specialist skills beyond the requirements of their qualifications.”

If the apprenticeship programme you choose requires College attendance, this will either be on a day release or block release basis, funded by your employer.

Whether you’re just starting your career, wanting to gain that qualification or wish to change career, an apprenticeship could be the answer.
