Distance Learning advice on Aerospace engineering

Hi all, I'm a 25 year old female and i work as a civillian at Wattisham Airfield UK. I have only been there for 6 months but the job i do and the people and vehicle i work with have inspired me to want to further myself in the career of Aerospace Engineering.
As I work full time, I am unable to attend college. So I am looking for a distance learning course in this field. I have emailed countless colleges and universities, but none seem to be able to help. I was wondering if anybody on here could give me some advice on where to start or who to contact.
I have the required GCSE in physics but I understand i would need to re-sit my GCSE maths and english as I scored a D and the required grade is C or above.
My workplace have spoken about apprenticeships but i have been told by other staff that apprenticeships were spoken about 3 or more years ago also, so i would rather start the ball rolling myself.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated
Many thanks
Claire
