Apprenticeships
Hundreds of our students progress to top
apprenticeships every year with leading firms such as
Barclays, Jaguar, Fujitsu and United Utilities, to name
just a few.
They have gone on to become nuclear engineers,
accountants, child carers, sports coaches,
photographers, NHS workers, Royal Marines, the list
goes on.
To help students make informed decisions Priestley
arranges opportunities including a trip to one of the
largest UCAS conventions to meet around 100
universities and employers.
Universities visit college to answer students’ questions
and numerous curriculum-focussed activities are also
arranged.

Beth studied English Literature, Photography and
then Art Foundation at Priestley College. She is now
a photographer with the RAF.
“My tutors at Priestley were always pushing
me to further my work and skills. What I
learned at college was a great stepping
stone into furthering my career as a
professional photographer.”
We work closely with Yipiyap who have taken on our
students to become assistant tutors in Warrington
schools during a year out.

their help to those students who want for it.”
