Amazing Apprenticeships Choices Magazine November 2024
Students choosing not to go onto Higher Education are supported in terms of ensuring that they are aware of the range of alternative options open to them.
Above you will find a link to 'Choices' magazine from Amazing Apprenticeships which is a fantastic parent and carer guide to apprenticeships and technical education. They have revamped their popular Parents’ and Carers’ Pack with a fresh new look, exciting features and lots of useful content. This is updated monthly.
Students will also have the opportunity to attend our annual Careers Fair which this year was attended by over 40 local and national employers, universities and colleges and was a fantastic opportunity for students to learn more about their options both Post 16 and Post 18. Amazing Apprenticeships hosted a talk to parents & students in our main hall, answering questions on all levels of apprenticeships from Intermediate right up to Degree level.
