Petroc School Leavers' Prospectus | ENGINEERING & MANUFACTURING
"Working out whether an apprenticeship is right for you depends on how you learn. I learn best hands-on and I’m quite a visual and practical learner. If you do an apprenticeship you get a taste of what it’s like to work in an actual workplace, working with other colleagues. You’re learning and you get paid for it as well so what more could you ask for?!”
