Amelia Castle, 18, from Bury St Edmunds works for West Suffolk College. Amelia received the internal apprentice of the year prize.
Amelia said: “I wanted to gain on the job, real life experience whilst gaining a qualification. I’m learning something new every day. So I believe that an apprenticeship is a great way to start my career.
