If you’re thinking an apprenticeship could be perfect for you, its worth seeing what vacancies are coming up with #Northern Skills Group# (www.northernskills.co.uk), Middlesbrough College’s training and apprenticeship company. If you’d like to find our more information on the benefits of an apprenticeship, they’ve produced a #handy guide# (https://issuu.com/mbroacuk/docs/nsg_apprentice_leaflet_issuu?e=26337408/41156518) that would be worth checking out.
If your sights are set on uni, and you want to explore the vast range of courses available to you across the country UCAS is a great starting point, but if you don’t like the idea of moving away, you could also consider a degree level course with Middlesbrough College! Offered in partnership with Teesside University, we have over 30 programmes on offer, all featured in our latest higher education prospectus.
Speak to your Personal Tutor
You’ll have a progression interview with your Tutor in the last half-term of College where you can run through your next steps. Don’t leave it until then though to get sorted! Get your plan of action in place well in advance.
