Daughter left school last year now in Uni, no such thing as Apprenticeships ever mentioned. Route here in Spain, School, leave at 16, from 15 you can go to PQPI and do couses , but still have school lessons Spanish, Maths etc, do your Baccalerate leave at 16, go to Uni, there is a caterting collage in Alcoy you could go to and find out info, so sure there are other Catering Collages around, go to your nearest ESO school and find out they will have the info.
Have you tried local bars and resturants, but as you are aware many are closing down good luck keep us informed.
Good Luck
