As the summer break approaches, Year 12 students have a valuable opportunity to explore their future pathways. The Sixth Formers' Guide to Degree Apprenticeships explains how degree apprenticeships offer an 'earn as you learn' debt-free route to the graduate job market.

The guide includes interviews with current degree apprentices, expert advice from employers, and features on degree apprenticeships in areas like engineering, law and accountancy. It's an excellent resource for students to use during the holidays, helping them understand what degree apprenticeships can provide - and plan their next steps.
