I will indeed be working for Go North East at Bensham. I'll be managing some of the systems that Go North East uses - I had a real interest in this department when I undertook some voluntary work experience last August. I'll be continuing with the AS examinations as an external student, with support from my teachers outside of school hours. I've already completed the coursework for the subjects which involve the completion of coursework at AS, which has secured 40% (English Language/Literature) and 50% (Media Studies) of my overall grade already. The coursework is of a very high standard (so I'm told) which means I should definitely pass these exams.
Everyone has been really supportive of the decision at school and it's an opportunity which I couldn't miss! Said my goodbyes to all of the staff before leaving this afternoon. Quite sad really!
So, are you leaving your private school? Must admit that's a big move. Seeing as you're still under 18 (I know 17 is close....
) is this technically an apprenticeship?
