A university degree isn't the only career path available to school leavers. There are real advantages to apprenticeships - both financial and practical! I liked the idea of being a teacher, a teaching assistant or having a job that involved helping people and supporting others! However, I wasn't 100% sure of what career path I wanted to take and that's why I didn't go to university. I thought, why would I pay all of the university fees to study something I might not even enjoy? That’s when I applied for a teaching assistant apprenticeship at Berkhamsted school! I loved it there and everybody was so welcoming and friendly. After a few months into my apprenticeship, I realised that a teaching career is definitely what I wanted to pursue! I have gained so much experience and have earned myself a ‘Level 2 helping teaching and learning’ qualification! The doors have now opened for me - I can go to university and study further, take a teacher training course or apply for more teaching assistant jobs! I have learnt from experts, obtained job experience and have gained heaps of confidence! By doing an apprenticeship, I was able to learn whilst earn and now I am certain of what I want to do!

As a parent you want the best for your son/daughter in their preferred career and personal life which is understandable .. Each child is different which also means different paths for their future.. Although academically able and offered a place at university my daughter decided it wasn't for her but this has by no means disadvantaged her in any way . I have seen my daughter grow into a more talented confident and well grounded young woman making well researched and informed decisions about her future. Following sixth form I have seen her relaxing and doing things she wanted to do without the pressures of coursework and studying ; she opted to do a voluntary placement within a local photography studio giving her a more in depth insight into photography as a business; then securing a full time job within a well known local Tring company; earning money; progressing within the company; socialising and generally being settled and enjoying life ..

She has grown in confidence become independent and financially secure even purchasing her own flat. She now feels that she is able ready and well equipped to follow her passion for photography and become a free lance photographer .. which she will do along side her full time job until she has built up her portfolio and business . As a mum seeing my daughter grow in confidence and seeing her realise her own true worth and potential is priceless. As a parent ... a mum ... I would say L - listen O - offer help and advice V - value their choices E - encourage them Every child has a place whatever their chosen path ..

My son did exceptionally well in his GCSEs, mainly ‘A’ grades, and studied Maths, Economics and Geography at A-level but had no idea what he wanted to do in the future. He applied to UCAS, through the excellent support at Tring School, to do a degree in Accounting and Finance but was still unsure about his
discussing potential plans with him. It was one such evening; I had googled ‘Higher Level Apprenticeships’ and an option to do ‘Project Delivery’ with the Civil Service popped up. I passed the laptop to him, he read the description and for the first time seemed interested. We filled in the application form and waited. He had to complete many online tests and several interviews over the phone and spent a couple of days in London having more interview and tests. Eventually an offer was made dependent on good A-level grades. This makes it sound arduous but for the first time he was inspired so was willing to get involved.

After much waiting (he did not start until February this year) he is now employed with the Civil Service and doing an Accountancy apprenticeship. He is being paid, pays us rent and has bought himself a new car. He is happy in the routine, has gym membership and is lucky to work with people who he enjoys the company of; despite some of them being as old as his parents! He is currently on holiday in Portugal with his old school friends, has another holiday booked to travel through Croatia and Hungary later in the year and uses his weekends to visit friends at universities thus tasting the ‘university life-style’ all of which he pays for himself. He and I could not be here this evening but am more than happy to answer any questions you have have, please speak to anyone in the Sixth Form team.
