Apprenticeship Post-A-Levels

Does anyone know where I can find any apprenticeships (with training) with Biology, Chemistry and Maths as A-Levels? Thank you for any replies.

Hi there - What sort of apprenticeship do you want to do? I'm sure many would accept you with those A levels. Do you want to do IT, chemistry or science. Most of the big companies seem to offer them ranging from banks to major drug companies. My daughter studied similar A levels and is starting an IT apprenticeship. But I'm sure there's lots of avenues you could take

I want to do something related to biology or chemistry or the medicine/healthcare sector. Thank you for replying.

I think your A levels sound perfect for that! Check out companies like Glaxo Smithkline, Astra Zeneca etc. UCAS has apprenticeships on it's site as well as not going to uni website - keep on checking and apply for those you are interested in. Many seem to advertise from January onwards for a September start. Good luck

Cogent skills are the apprenticeship provider for a lot of healthcare companies in the U.K. I did a degree apprenticeship in medical device research and development (mechanical and bio engineering) through them.

They usually have a list of vacancies on their site.

I’d definitely recommend the healthcare industry for science and engineer roles. They put priority on the patient over cost, typically have really good employer benefits, and value a good work-life balance.
