National Apprenticeship Week
Next week is National Apprenticeship Week – this is a week dedicated to looking at the Post-16 Option of Apprenticeship and increasing student knowledge and understanding of this Post-16 Option.
To celebrate, the school will be holding a series of events to help enhance students’ basic knowledge and understanding of Apprenticeship – whilst also providing selected students with additional support in how to access apprenticeship programmes beyond Year 11.
The activities include:
Year 7-11 Tutor Time
Monday or Tuesday (dependant on Assembly Day) – All Tutors deliver a Session on What is an Apprenticeship to help introduce Apprenticeships.
Rest of week – A brief video at the start of the Tutor Session that focuses on ‘A day in the life on an Apprentice’ across a variety of different sectors.
