Website for school leavers says alternatives to university available

It’s brilliant that so many students have this year got the results they were hoping for and have been granted places at university. However, we can’t ignore the fact that many students currently studying at university would rather be doing an apprenticeship or something similar – studies have shown this.

We strongly advise students receiving their A-Level results this year to bide their time and really think about their options...Anyone that didn’t get the grades they wanted today needn’t panic, because work-based learning and other vocational training opportunities are available to them."
