“Student Apprenticeships” is a new and exciting programme that places a Year 12 or 13 student in a local company once or twice a week to help them gain

• industry-recognised training
• experience
• qualifications gained “on-the-job” (usually NVQ2 & 3) while still following a programme of study in school.

How does it work?

If you decide to put forward students for this programme

Liverpool Compact EBP will:

• Provide schools with a list of approved vacancies for YOUR students
• Provide a short period of student preparation
• Support schools through regular Network meetings.

All Student Apprentices:

• Receive a job description
• Complete an application form and/or letter of application to the employer
• Require an interview

Successful students will receive:

• An Apprenticeship Agreement, signed by the school, the employer, themselves and their parents/carers. This details:
  • A period of probation (one half term)
  • An Individual Learning Plan covering the period of the apprenticeship which outlines:
    • On-the-job training with the employer
    • On-the-job assessment arrangements
    • Work-based accreditation/qualifications available
    • Off-the-job learning arranged by the school
    • Any other additional support.
  • The duration of the apprenticeship (minimum 1 year)
  • The likely or probable progression routes into employment or further learning
  • The provision of careers advice before both joining and leaving the programme.
