Apprenticeships
Information about apprenticeships for young people with SEND.
An apprenticeship is a job with a high level of training leading to a range of qualifications. Apprenticeships are available at Levels 2 (Intermediate), 3 (Advanced) and 4 (Higher) in a wide range of career frameworks such as agriculture, administration, construction, engineering, hospitality, sport and travel.
Apprentices usually spend 80% of their time in the workplace and 20% in off-the-job training. Young people have the opportunity to earn while they learn. Apprenticeships are competitive and employers often usually require Maths and English GCSEs at C/4 or above.
It is also key to note that legislation states that EHCPs do continue in an apprenticeship.
