Getting Your Exam Results? Your Next Step Starts Here

Results day is an exciting milestone. Whether you’ve received the grades you hoped for, are exploring alternatives to university, or are still deciding what comes next, there are many routes to a rewarding career.

At Kids Planet Day Nurseries, an apprenticeship could be the perfect opportunity to take your first step into the world of Early Years, gaining valuable experience, recognised qualifications and a career with real purpose.

Your Results. Your Future. Your Choice

Starting an apprenticeship is an exciting journey. Whether this is your first role after school or college, or you’re looking for a different path, remember that every experienced practitioner once stood exactly where you are today.

You’ll develop new skills, build confidence, and make a genuine difference to children’s lives every day. At Kids Planet, we are a community. We believe in supporting one another, embracing curiosity and celebrating every achievement along the way.

Earn While You Learn

An apprenticeship allows you to gain hands-on experience while working towards recognised qualifications. From day one, you’ll be part of a supportive nursery team, learning practical skills that will help you build a successful and rewarding career. For those who enjoy learning through doing, an apprenticeship can be a fantastic alternative to traditional further education routes.

Give Yourself Time To Grow

Learning doesn’t happen overnight. You’ll be introduced to new routines, responsibilities and ways of working, and it’s completely normal not to know everything straight away. Our nurseries are a safe place to ask questions, stay curious and never be afraid to seek support. Your team, mentor and training colleagues are all there to help you succeed.

Embrace Every Opportunity

No two days in a nursery are ever the same. Whether you’re supporting creative play, outdoor adventures, story time, mealtimes or daily routines, every experience helps you develop your skills and confidence. Be willing to step outside your comfort zone. Every new experience is an opportunity to learn, grow and discover what you’re capable of.

Learn from the Best

One of the greatest benefits of an apprenticeship at Kids Planet is the support you’ll receive from experienced practitioners and industry experts. Our dedicated Training Academy and internal training team ensure development is embedded into every stage of your journey. Learning and continued professional development are part of who we are, giving you access to ongoing training and a wide range of future career opportunities.

Every Role Matters

At Kids Planet, teamwork is at the heart of everything we do. From setting up inspiring learning environments to supporting children’s development and wellbeing, every task contributes to helping children thrive. Every contribution matters and every person has an impact.

Welcome Feedback and Build Confidence

Feedback is a valuable part of learning. Every conversation, observation and piece of guidance is designed to help you build confidence, strengthen your skills and become the best practitioner you can be. Be sure to celebrate your progress and reflect on how far you’ve come.

Managing the Balance

Balancing work and study is an important part of your apprenticeship. Developing strong organisational skills now will benefit you throughout your career. Remember, everyone develops at their own pace. Some days will feel easier than others, but every challenge is helping you grow. Focus on your progress, recognise your achievements and trust the journey.

Where Could Your Apprenticeship Take You?

Your apprenticeship is about much more than achieving a qualification. It’s an opportunity to gain valuable experience, develop lifelong skills and build the foundations for a successful career in Early Years. Many of our leaders, managers and senior colleagues started their careers as apprentices. What began as a first step after school became a fulfilling career with opportunities to progress, specialise and lead.

We’re also proud to be recognised as the #1 Workplace for Development by Best Place to Work, reflecting our commitment to helping every colleague reach their full potential.

So, as you look at your A-level or GCSE results and consider what comes next, remember: Your Results. Your Future. Your Choice. And your journey could start with Kids Planet.
