im at college and i did a weeks w/ex at an airport and there is limited things you can do, but you tend to shadow a lot of staff and get invloved in the praticl side, (i dealt with 300 ppl that were stranded!)they also might offer u a part a job at the end of it, if u giv a look image.keep well behaved!if u go to college there r lots of human biolgy etc. i no sum1 dats @ colege who wnts to b a doctor and shes doing hist dat included hist of med!bst advise gt ur self known to hospitals and vets. working in a skool wont b as rewarding as saving a life!eva thought of a parmedic or trauma team?

Whatever you do, don't go to a school. You have been in school most of your life- why would you want to waste this opportunity doing more school!? If you are interested in medicine, try getting in a vets or even a hospital- a private one may take you if an NHS one won't. They will probably give you the easiest jobs with no responsibility, so you may need to ask for specific things. I worked in the local theatre for mine. They wanted me to work in the box office (DULL) so I insisted that working backstage was far more relevant to my school coursework. You are unpaid, after all- they can't make you do skivvy jobs! So I ended up working with Sooty and Harry Corbett, Brian Conley and Little and Large for 2 weeks! Was great fun!

medicine wise you could also try old peoples homes as they are less busy than a hospital and would probably have more time to teach you stuff. if you can find a vets how about a zoo?
