It's important you get your children to university....

Jeez have they changed the name of that place again!

When I was working in the canteen at Cambridge (University, the real one) we used to look down our noses at the plebs in "Cambridgeshire College of Arts and Technology" (CCAT) canteen.
Then it became "Anglia Higher Education College Canteen" (AHEC).
Then "Anglia Polytechnic Canteen"
Then "University of East Anglia Canteen" (I think),
and now "Anglia Ruskin University Canteen"
and from next week it's called "Sodexho"
.

Accountancy seems to be one of the professions which is still telling people that they can get into it without having to go to uni.

The comment from one person I spoke to was that it was easier to get into Oxbridge then it was to pass the criteria PWC are using.

Well OK yes I was on pot-wash 3 days a week. <rumbled>
But I made £3.20/hour and got to bow for the master and fellows at high table during Michaelmas and Lent terms 1989/90..

I use to know lots of people who worked for PWC....they all left apart from one... However that's nothing to do with the price of fish as they also do other functions.

There are lots of small accountancy firms who will employ a 16-18 year old and allow them to do their training whilst working. Some of them will also sponsor the trainee.

Though having worked with kids aged 16-18 and been served by them it seems that only a few are employable straight from school and it seems to be getting worse every year.

The larger firms who have apprenticeships are overrun with applicants.
