Hi, a cover letter needs to summarise yourself, why you would be a suitable candidate and why you want that specific role. If you want, I can send over a guide on how to write a cover letter for a degree apprenticeship as well as a sample cover letter with the structure I used to get 8 degree apprenticeship offers (mostly in engineering). Let me know if you'd be interested and I can send those over.

Hi, I am in year 13, Please may I also have this sent over to me?

To stand out don't be boring. No one really cares about you if you cant be:
humble (volunteer, get a job in mcd's etc) (this is what was the deciding factor in my interview, my part time job)
interesting (think hobbies + activites)
a great communicator

Why? Because everyone you are competing with has the work experience, they have the daddy who got them a summer intership. They have straight A's. Stand out.

I don’t think GS does AC’s iirc, only 3 stages in this application:

Apply
Interviews
Acceptance/rejection

Might be wrong, but this is one of the reasons why the GS DA is so insanely hard to get
