DS (16) has been offered an apprenticeship with a local business, studying Level 3 Business Administration. He's got GCSEs and is at college but isn't enjoying it so thought an apprenticeship might be better for him.
I assumed this would gain UCAS points allowing him to progress onto perhaps an HNC in Business but it appears you don't get UCAS points from an apprenticeship.
So now we're not sure if it's the right thing to do. Does anyone have any experience of apprenticeships and whether or not you can go onto higher education?
