Not doing A2 and doing apprenticeship instead (national grid)

In terms of salary, a proper engineer (not the ones that fix boilers) get paid up to 60k+ a year.
But that all depends on your math skills and your hard work and determination. I think that you should just continue with your A levels regardless of the fact that your not interested in university . Having A levels is far better than a couple of A*-C GCSEs in my opinion.

The rest is up to you.

but i kinda feel like im not going to do well with them as though it's a waste of 2 years if i don't do well which tbh i don't think i will, thats why i though apprenticiship it could get me straight in to a job i want to be in.

Well that is something only you can decide. This might sound a bit cliche but, Follow you heart.

And just a quick question, DID you actually get this apprenticeship or you have to apply and there is a chance that you might not get it?

Are you guaranteed a job at the end of it?

£14.5k a year is an amazing wage considering you'd only be an apprentice, and considering you qualify while earning and then earn £23k a year to start off with, I'd honestly go for it if you know you're not very into academia and there's a job guaranteed at the end. Engineers are always going to be in demand, and with professional qualifications, doing something you enjoy, I see no reason why not to do an apprenticeship

Im really thinking about finishing AS and then dropping out to do a engineering apprenticeship with the national grid,
I'm not really wanting to do university and not enjoying my A-Levels very much, this apprenticeship seems perfect for me, it requires 5 gcse A*-C in certain subjects which i have all at grade b and 1 c, and i think i would really enjoy it, do you think it would be worth it and do you think i could get into this apprenticeship with these grades bearing in mind i haven't very much at all extra curricular.

thats what i was thinking im 95% sure theres a job guarenteed at the end besides why would they state that, and even if i wouldn't get a job with them i'm pretty sure it would open more career oppurtunities

After doing a degree
Then post grad
Then three or four years experience
Then becoming chartered
Then another 10 years experience on top of that.

Whats not listed on a lot of these big firms websites is that if you do well, on the level 3 they put you through higher education. Ive got a friend who`s doing a foundation degree funded by BMW. All the time getting 25k a year. Not bad!

The Npower apprenticeship scheme is top notch as well. There may be local place that does a scheme too, local to me is CCFE (Jet torus project). That sorta thing.

Stay way from small companies. When they don't have enough work on they will make up any reason to get rid of you Eg. "You arn`t making enough progress in the workshop" Happened to a mate of mine.

Also, what AS levels are you doing?

Bear in mind that the competition for these apprenticeships is fierce. Companies like national grid can have loads of applications for just a few positions. I would try and find other companies (e.g. Rolls Royce), which offer apprenticeships and apply for a few of them. If all fails, I would just carry on with college and reapply when you have your A levels.
