    Sixteen - What now?

    You’re 16 and finally you can leave school! By now, you’re probably sick of
    teachers, desks, tests and exams. But don’t just run for the exit. You need to
    think carefully about what to do next.

    If you want a professional career, you will need to go to university and get a
    degree. To do that, you need to stay at high school for another two years. But
    you needn’t stay at the same place. There are several options in the district of
    Northacre.

    St. Leopold’s School has the best pass rate of all the high schools in the
    district. It offers a wide range of subjects in the humanities and sciences. St
    Leopold’s is, of course, a private school, so may be too expensive for you. But
    don’t worry, there are several other options if you want to follow the academic
    route. Knowle Grammar School is a state school, so there are no fees, and it
    has excellent tuition and facilities. It is a boys’ school from the ages of 11-16,
    but from 16-18 it is co-educational. But it is selective, so you’ll have to pass
    an exam to get in. If you’re interested in going into Business, check out Wyle
    River Academy. This school specialises in subjects like Business Studies,
    Management and Economics. If you prefer the arts, look at the courses on
    offer at Northacre College. Here you can study woodwork, art, textiles and
    much more.

    Northacre College also offers a wide range of vocational qualifications. You


    can do a 1-year certificate or a 2-year diploma in subjects like electrics,
    plumbing, roofing and hairdressing. If you’d prefer to work outdoors, look at
    Milldown College, where there are courses in Farm Mechanics, Land
    Management, Animal Management and much more.

    A final option is to get an apprenticeship with a local or national company.


    You will get on-the-job training, gain certificates or diplomas and start earning
    straight away. But be warned - places are limited! Find out more at the Jobs
    Fair on 26th May at Northacre College.
