Young Apprenticeships are a new way for bright and dedicated pupils to learn about jobs they are interested in, gain work experience and develop practical vocational skills without giving up their academic qualifications.
They are designed to give pupils a feel and understanding of the workplace whilst working towards a vocational qualification and bringing together many of the things they are studying in their other GCSE's.
YA's complement the National Curriculum. This means pupils continue to learn English, Maths and Science and possibly other GCSE's for three days a week . They then spend two days a week on YA (one day at college and one with an employer)
YA is currently available in the following areas;
Business Administration - If successful you will be awarded NVQ 1 & 2 in Business Administration, ECDL 1 & 2 and CLAIT certificate.
Hairdressing- If successful you will be awarded City and Guilds Level 2 Diploma in Hairdressing.
Motor Vehicle- If successful you will be awarded VRQ Level 1 & 2.
Retail- If successful you will be awarded BTEC First Diploma in Retail.
