Studying in college and applying for apprenticeships !

Hi!! Next year i’ll be studying for A levels in college part time, though i also want to simultaneously work as an apprentice in hairdressing. Am i even able to do this? i’ve been searching online though have found no apprenticeships available for college students.. let me know if there are any sites i can search through or if this just isn’t really possible!!

Hey! It can be possible to do a hairdressing apprenticeship while studying part-time for A-levels, but it depends on your college hours and whether the salon/employer is happy to work around them. Apprenticeships usually need a set number of hours, so you’d need to make sure it fits with your college timetable.
Some places to look: GOV.UK Apprenticeship Search, FG Apprenticeships, Span Training, and certain salon chains like Sean Hanna. Definitely worth checking with employers directly some are fine with part-time college students.
