If any students are interested in doing an apprenticeship, please visit https://mercedes-benztraining.co.uk/mercedes-benz-academy-programme.aspx. Using their home postcode, they can search for vacancies in their local areas and then make an application. These vacancies are constantly changing, with new positions being added regularly.

The apprenticeships are open to students who are 16 and over (they must be 16 to start the programme in September, so can apply whilst they are 15), and ideally need grade 4 or above in English and Maths at GCSE.

Summer Bedding Plants

Natalie McGillivary

We’ve sourced a new plant supplier and are able to offer a selection of bedding plants once again. The prices are slightly higher than in previous years due to the cost of compost having risen significantly over the last 12 months. However, the range of plants is much greater than we’ve been able to offer before. If you’d like to order any plants, please complete the order form here, and return to school Reception by Wednesday 27th April or email to info@lymmhigh.org.uk.

Delivery will be in May before the Half Term.
