But half way through her second year, she realised university was not for her and started an apprenticeship instead.

While working as an administration assistant for a home improvement company, Lucy chose to go back to college to do an apprenticeship.
She is now five months into a NVQ level 2 course in business administration which she is taking as an apprentice HR administrator at the Sheiling School in Thornbury.
Lucy said: "I am so glad I looked for an apprenticeship. After two interviews I came to Sheiling School and knew immediately that I wanted to work here. I was so happy when I received the news that I had the job.
"I really enjoy working here. It doesn't feel like I'm different to any of the other employees. I have a good amount of responsibility which allows me to have pride in my work and I feel like a fully integrated team member. I am now hoping to stay on and undertake the next level."

“Girls quits college (again?) end of story.
Honestly, what is the point of employing anyone to print this total nonsensical garbage?”
