How do i find summer schools?

Hii, I have just finished year 11 and I wanted to find some summer schools for finance or accounting. However, whenever I apply I always don’t fit any of the requirements. So I was wondering if anyone knew some work experiences/ summer schools that are inclusive for everyone’s living situations.

Not entirely sure why you would want to do summer school for accounting or finance, especially when it doesn't help with job applications (you won't need them). They can be helpful with applying to specific uni courses, but at best it's only useful in your personal statement.
In a professional capacity, you will fare a lot better with a good network and the appropriate professional qualification for the specific role that you want to go into (some of which you should be eligible for).

See the following for example:

https://www.immerse.education/banking-finance-summer-school/london/

Most of the summer schools at universities tend to be for universities students.

Having said that, I haven't attended a summer school programme before, so I can't say what it's like.
