Apprentice looking for answers

[peteheat]

Perhaps you could look for a major swedish or European contractor who has contracts in the UK?

They may be able to see both sides the first that you are qualified except for a piece of paper and they would understand the level you are officially qualified to, so with a little extra money you get to officially finish your apprenticeship and have an income.

My advice is if possible take the £80.00 per week for one year that way you have the papers to travel to any country you wish in the future, without that piece of paper you will always be classed as a laborer / plumbers helper.

some of the "plumbers" i encountered on large commercial type sites would have trouble wiping their own arses to be horribly blunt thank god i dont have to endure another day of meccano plumbing. if you want to learn anything meaningful/useful then get with a decent high end domestic firm. if i were you i would go into telecomms or IT and bid plumbing farewell
yours sincerely
i H8 plumbing

Best just to give it a go on your own Jamie. Its your best chance of earning a decent wage.
