Re: wanted APPRENTISHIP FOR 16yr OLD / ELECTRICIAN
It might be worth your son enrolling for a BTEC Electronics course at your local college - this will give him something to do and gain him some skills as well. While he is there the college will have industry links and information on Modern Apprenticeships where he can get paid and still attend college on day release whilst doing the actual job the other 4 days. Good luck to him - I hope he find something soon

I'll second that statement, Wingy.
