A crucial part of any apprenticeship is choosing the right employer.

Benefits to your business:

• Allow you to recruit throughout the year
• Grow your business
• Increase profitability
• Enable you to gain a competitive advantage
• Improve employee retention

Day 3 – “We love Apprentice Wednesday”

Day 4 – T-Level Thursday

Would you prefer a more technical education when you come to College, rather than following a purely academic pathway, or a work-based apprenticeship? 

T Levels are a 2-year qualification that you can do after GCSEs as an alternative to A levels, other post-16 courses or an apprenticeship. 

They have been designed with leading businesses and employers to give you the knowledge and skills you need.
