We have recently been advised of some local apprenticeship opportunities.

If any senior pupils are interested please speak to Mr Tickner.

The Princes Foundation for Building Community

The Prince’s Foundation for Building Community are pleased to announce the third year of their programme aimed at helping 16 – 18 year-olds into a career in the traditional building craft sector. The Prince’s Foundation will train these Young Heritage Apprentices in a variety of crafts including stonemasonry, roofing, land crafts, carpentry and plastering. The Young Heritage Apprentices will be able to try their hand at the different crafts, and specialise in the one they enjoy the most. By combining these classes with placements with some of the country’s leading master craftspeople, as well as short courses such as Business Skills, the budding craft professionals will take the first steps towards a career in a sector that is currently suffering from a skills shortage.
