It can be really confusing trying to decide what to do when you leave school. It makes sense to stay in learning. Someone with a minimum set of qualifications will be more likely to get a job and will earn on average £4,000 a year more than someone with no qualifications. If you’re under 19 learning is free, so it makes sense to get qualifications and get set for life now!
