In the final episode of this series we’re talking about the green agenda and how apprenticeships – particularly in the trade and engineering sectors – can help us hit our targets and live a little more sustainably.
Rachel’s guest this week is Santina Bunting, a Level 3 Civil Engineering apprentice in the Geotechnics team at ARUP
Santina discusses her journey into an apprenticeship at 16, what it was like to leave school at a young age and go to work whilst her friends were in sixth form, how she found the apprenticeship with support from her Mum, what the benefits have been and what her advice to others would be. Santina also discusses her future plans to progress into a degree apprenticeship in engineering and what it’s been like as a young woman in the sector.

There is a common misconception that the rail industry jobs consists of manual labour and shift work, and it’s traditionally been a male-dominated work environment. Routes into Rail is a programme run on behalf of the whole rail sector, who are keen to dispel these myths and demonstrate that rail is a truly welcoming and inclusive place for all to work in.
Over the last 5 years, we have seen an increase in women undertaking roles such as senior business managers, train drivers and electrical engineering in rail. The workforce has seen the percentage of females entering the rail sector, grow from 8% to 17%. This is an achievement for the industry, but it’s still not good enough. We want to aim towards a 50/50 gender split. This is why we are reaching out to you, to ask you to look again at rail and look beyond what you might see at your local railway station, and consider the huge range of roles in this vast and growing industry.
Rail needs not only engineers and train drivers, but need employees with skills in digital to prepare us for the future. There are environmental jobs, as rail carefully plans its expansion through the countryside. There are communications, customer service, commercial roles – this list goes on.
If you have so far dismissed the idea of working in rail, we ask you to help us re-write rail and make it a truly diverse place to work.

Psychometric Testing is a widely used part of the recruitment and selection process not only for Apprenticeships but also increasingly in other interviews and assessments as we move further into a virtual way of working.
One of our George Abbot parents Dan Hughes who is a Chartered Occupational Psychologist and the International Director of Research & Development at PSI Services has very kindly put together a bespoke Introduction to Psychometric Testing for all George Abbot Students. The presentation recording can be accessed here. Many thanks to Dan.
