Life after HLS - Anyone remember their session with the career advisor? I think mine was in the 3rd year and lasted for about half an hour, I said I had ambitions to become an Architect - career advisor said forget it - you need O Levels, my second choice was Television Studio Technician, she was almost as negative about that.
I made an unsuccessful application for a place in the Lucas Apprentice School - selection process lasted all day (9-5, lunch provided) bitterly disappointed when told unsuccessful, some consolation: A best friend also failed to get in and he was much brighter than I was.
Did get a GKN Apprenticeship and studied Engineering and Management at The University of Central England, so not too bad an outcome.
