Apprenticeship Pop Up! – Thomas Mills High School

July 21, 2025

Each year, during National Apprenticeship Week, we host a lunch time ‘pop up’ on several days throughout the week, which is available to all students. Employers and apprenticeship providers set up stalls with information about their business and the apprenticeships available.

We also have some of our alumni come in to speak to our students about their experiences and the career paths they took with regards to apprenticeships. There is the opportunity for students to engage with employers and find out what opportunities are available to them.

Quotes

“I spoke to an employer about their apprenticeships. They offered me work experience so I could gain some insight before applying for an apprenticeship.” Student

“I didn’t know that I could do childcare and sports in the same apprenticeship. These are two things I really enjoy.”  Student
