The options available to students can be put into a few groups:

Students who choose this route would mainly study A-level subjects.

The entry requirements are, generally, grades 5 or 6 across a range of GCSEs. However, each institution will have it’s own entry requirements.

In the local area there are several options for this route.

Apprenticeship

Students who choose this route would be mainly based in a place of work. They would also go to college for a day or two a week to study.

Apprenticeships are available in a wide range of careers. Most apprenticeships require young people to have a range of GCSEs at grades 4 and above including English and Maths.

Young people are paid and rates of pay vary from one apprenticeship to another.

Work

This option is becoming increasingly difficult to find for 16-18 year olds.

It is recommended that you look for a job that has some training alongside it, so that you can develop your skills at the same time.
