APPRENTICESHIPS An apprenticeship is a real job where you work for an employer, alongside spending a day a week studying to develop your skills and gain a valuable
work-related qualification. Some young people join us as apprentices, while many more get taken on as apprentices after spending a year or more in the college as a full-time student. Speak to us for advice or see www.nescot.ac.uk/apprenticeships/
Becoming a carpenter was a big career change for me, something I’d always dreamed of trying but didn’t really get the opportunity before. After chatting with the Nescot team I decided to go for it! I’m super supported by my employer (Ridgeback) and at Nescot. I love the work and enjoy getting involved in every aspect of the project, it’s been a wonderful experience.

We love having apprentices, because it’s a great way of continuing to improve our collective skills and expertise. Our apprentices can learn from the expertise of our experienced colleagues, and the whole team benefits from keeping up to date on the latest early years theories and principles. We see apprenticeships as a long-term way of developing staff.
