Accountancy Apprenticeship vs University

My main goal is to overall achieve a career in Accountancy. However i am unsure of the best way to approach this. Any advice would be much appreciated.
Also if i was to do an apprenticeship where is the best place to look for these opportunities

Thank you, we have decided the same.
I'm doing an accountancy apprenticeship with the civil service. It works for me as I never achieved the grades to go to uni and also needed to be earning. I get a lot of support within work and scheduled time out of work to do the qualification. I also find that when looking at accountancy jobs they want you to have a minimum of 2 years experience as well as the qualification and doing the apprenticeship means I hit both criteria. Uni works for some, for me not an option but if you want to earn money as well then I would recommend an apprenticeship for sure.
