Further Education & Apprenticeships

Begin planning your future early. Discuss possibilities for education, employment and training with your designated teacher, or ask for one-to-one tuition in English and Maths to help you improve. If you have a particular job in mind, find out what skills and qualifications are needed.
Your school and designated teacher can help you identify the entry requirements for college or other courses, like apprenticeships that enable you to work, learn and earn at the same time. Teachers can help you explore the ways you can get into university and the different types of qualifications that will support this.
The Virtual School often organise someone to help you prepare for Further and Higher Education. This could include help with writing your personal statement, arranging college or university visits or with UCAS or other application forms.
Don’t forget, if you need any help with this, you can email us at virtualschool@leics.gov.uk
