Scott is a Civil Engineering Degree Apprentice, Coventry University

“As I approached the end of my GCSEs, I already knew that the apprenticeship route was for me. I felt like whatever career I might pursue, I could make better progress working for a company in that time than I would in full-time education.

Working day-to-day in the industry that my studies applied to allowed me to see the value in every portion of the qualification. I could take more information in because I had somewhere to place it, and as a result, I was able to achieve much higher grades than I would have done in a full-time scenario.”
