I'm currently studying an NVQ in Child Care and am doing Level 1. Now, I'm currently studying it 2 days a week at school and 2 days at a work placement.
The first day was fine because we didn't have any Year 10s (they're doing Entry Level or something and we're expected to help them on a Thursday) but now it seems that we HAVE to help them with rheir work even though we've probably only touched briefly on what they're doing and we have work of our to do as well.
Now, I was talking to a friend of mine who feels the same way. She mentioned something about how she's either going to do Catering next year or get an apprentership. How would I go about getting an apprentership?
Also, are there any other options for me other than staying on at school (which I can only do for one more year apparantely) and getting an apprentership?
I've already decided what I want to do at uni and have been told that NVQ level 3in Early Years Care is a fine qualification for the course I want to do.

Also, it does seem that the teachers can't always be bothered to help them (even though there's normally two of them to help) so we're expected to help them.
And the other teacher shouts at the other students telling them get on with their work.
What job were you thinking of going into anyway? Nursery nursing requires level 2/3, nursery management level 4 plus experience and teaching undergraduate plus post graduate such as PGCE or SCITT.
