Start earlier than everyone else.
Work experience and apprenticeship schemes open through the school year, and the students who get them heard early. The WhatsApp community is free and takes one tap. There is a UCAS & A-Levels room inside.
Rolling deadlines: many firms review applications as they arrive and close early once they have enough candidates. Apply in the first week the window opens whenever you can.

Common questions
Only after a degree apprenticeship? Every live degree apprenticeship, on one page →
Who is this tracker for?
School students in Years 10 to 13, including sixth form and college. It lists work experience and insight programmes at firms, university summer schools and access programmes, and apprenticeships you can apply to before university, and each listing shows the school years it's open to.
What is an access programme, and why are they listed with work experience?
Access programmes are free, selective schemes run by universities and charities for state school students: UNIQ at Oxford, STEM SMART and HE+ at Cambridge, K+ at King's, Queen Mary Futures, the Sutton Trust summer schools and Pathways programmes, the Social Mobility Foundation's Aspiring Professionals Programme. Many come with a reduced offer, a residential or a work placement at a partner firm, and they are what sixth formers ask about most. Nothing else tracks them alongside employer schemes, so this page does.
When do applications open?
Most Year 12 work experience opens between November and April for the following summer; university summer schools and access programmes open between October and March; apprenticeship intakes open in the autumn of your final school year. The Opening soon list on this page gives the expected window for each scheme that has not opened yet, worked out from when it opened last cycle or from the date the organiser has announced.
Where do these listings come from?
Employer schemes are read from the firms' own careers sites and from an aggregated feed within minutes of going live. University and charity programmes have no feed, so they are kept in a reviewed list and each organiser's page is re-read every few days for this cycle's dates. Spot something wrong and the Report button on the row tells us.
What's the difference between work experience and an apprenticeship?
Work experience and insight programmes are short (usually a few days to two weeks) and designed to show you what a career is like. Apprenticeships (including degree apprenticeships) are paid, multi-year roles you start after school instead of, or alongside, a traditional degree.
Which of the apprenticeships are degree apprenticeships?
The ones labelled Degree apprenticeship on the row, and the Degree apprenticeships chip at the top shows only those. A degree apprenticeship is Level 6 (a full bachelor's degree, paid for by the employer, alongside the job) or Level 7 (a solicitor apprenticeship, for example). Higher apprenticeships are Level 4 or 5, and the accountancy firms' school leaver programmes lead to a professional qualification rather than a degree. The label is read from the title the employer gave the role, so a posting called only "Apprenticeship Programme" is left unlabelled: open it to check the level.
Should I apply early or wait?
Apply early. Many firms review on a rolling basis and close once they have enough strong candidates. The first few weeks of a window are usually less competitive than the final deadline.
How fresh are the openings?
The tracker checks employers every few minutes and new schemes usually appear within minutes of going live on the firm's careers site.
