THE MOST IMPORTANT DECISION
Around the age of seventeen, you have to make one of the most important
decisions in your life. Do you stay on at school and hopefully go to university later? Or do
you leave school to start work or a training course? This is your decision, but you should
remember two things: there is more unemployment among young people who have not
been to university, and people with the right skills have a big advantage in the job market.
If you make the decision to go straight into a job, there are many opportunities for training.
While you are earning, you can also take evening classes to gain qualifications, which
