nvq3 costs 18 year old

[simpson93]

hi guys, went for an interview at west hearts college yesterday for a 3 year apprenticeship and i told them i sighned for the nvq due to the date closing day and told them i paid £720 at quickstep.
she seemed quite shocked, and told me that they do it for free for under 18s, and over 18s 600 including site visits.

cant really understand why ive been charged to do it at one place and not the other.
hopefully i can get some money back but probably not.

Look beyond that cost. In the long run it's worth it. If I had to choose between paying for it like I am now or going back through my old collage, I would pay. Less hassle and red tape
