Now, why would you want to be a plumber?

cause it probably beats the hell outa working in a factory for the last 12 years mate.get a trade as my grandad used to say.i wish i'd have done it when i first left school.

But why a plumber? (They need plumbers in factories too).

nvq 2 is neither necessary nor sufficient, to be a plumber. But it would probably help.

Yes you do lead work, bend copper, and screw things onto walls. I believe it has changed since I did it when it was all in the college; now you have to have some means of getting experience outside with a plumber, while doing the course.
