Getting Started?

Hello,
I'm currently studying for my A2s (A Levels) and I am looking at pursuing a career as an aircraft maintenance engineer (particulary Helicopters as I have a deep interest in them), but I'm abit confused as to the best route into the industry.

Is it best to get a degree first?
Get an apprenticeship (do companies do apprenticeships)?

Where can I get more information on license (JAR66 etc)
What other options?

I'm studying Maths, Physics, Product design, general studies and doing an AS (half A Level) in Further Maths.

Any assistance greatly appreciated.
