# Apprenticeships

Students at the end of year 11 to Year 13 can consider an Apprenticeships option. An apprenticeship combines practical training in a job with study, where they will get the opportunity to work alongside experienced staff, gain specific job skills, earn a wage and get holiday pay, and be given the time to study related to their role (most occasions one day a week). Apprenticeships range from Intermediate at Level 2 all the way up to degree level at Level 6-7.
