Finishing school at 16? Don't know what to do next?

An apprenticeship could be the answer.

What is an apprenticeship?

If you do an apprenticeship, you'll combine work with studies. You'll earn money while you learn new skills. There are apprenticeships in different sectors, depending on your interests. They last up to two years.

Will I get any qualifications?

Yes! You'll get a certificate. You'll learn skills like team-building or using new technology. Each apprenticeship also awards its own qualification.

How do I apply?

You can find an application form on the website or go to your local council office. Some people contact employers directly. If there is a business in your area where you'd like to work, phone them and ask about apprenticeships.

What about money and holidays?

You get a basic wage of £40 a week. But you could get more, depending on your employer. You'll get at least 1.5 days' paid holiday for every month of training. On top of that you'll get bank holidays.

Audrey

'I'm leaving school in two weeks. I am going to do an apprenticeship in a bank. They are going to pay me £50 a week and I'll be able to earn extra money if I work on Saturdays. I'm going to get a qualification after a year. That will help me get a job as a bank clerk. Most of my friends are staying on at school but I want to earn some money.'

Ken

'I'm starting my apprenticeship next month. I'm working with an electrician. He's going to teach me practical skills. I'm going to do evening classes on Tuesdays to learn about the theory. I'll get paid £300 a month. It isn't much, but it's better than nothing!'
