Son is in his last year of A Levels, he has the ability to go on to University, and it’s still 50/50 on the apprenticeship route. The apprenticeship route is a good one, earning and getting qualifications. He’s a good head on his shoulders and we will support him either way.
I do regret not trying harder myself. In later life I’ve studied and January I start a teaching qualification at the age of 54 !!! I must be mad ? Well it is only a qualification to teach 16+ in Further Eduction. It qualifies for staff development so I won’t be paying for it. I’ve been late at finding my niche !!!!
