Representatives from Glaxo Smith Kline, Livia Kippax and Francesca Hume, visited King James to talk to Year 10 students about the many opportunities for Degree Apprenticeships within the company.

Livia, who is undertaking a Degree Apprenticeship in Micro Biology, and Francesca, whose discipline is Packaging & Technology both spoke with great enthusiasm about the benefits of high level apprenticeships, such as avoiding student debt, gaining valuable work experience and of course, receiving a wage while you learn.

Students were interested to hear about the different opportunities at Glaxo Smith Kline, with many saying that the session had made them think positively about Degree Apprenticeships as an alternative to university.
