A teenage general administrator who chose to learn in the workplace rather than continue into higher education, has been awarded the title Champion Modern Apprentice by the Learning and Skills Council, Tees Valley.
Aimee Inns, 19, from Norton, is impressing her bosses at the County Durham and Tees Valley Workforce Development Confederation and organisers of the Business Administration Advanced Modern Apprenticeship.
Aimee said: "I chose the Modern Apprenticeship because I had done my A levels and was not sure where I wanted to go from there. It's a good way of learning skills and working at the same time."
