Your choices
Post-16 you can:
- continue in education
- do an Apprenticeship
- get a job - preferably with training
- work for yourself
- and if you're not ready for one of these, you can do a personalised learning programme and continue to develop your basic skills and confidence.
Most people choose to stay in education and training and many get financial help through the Education Maintenance Allowance (EMA). The September Guarantee entitles all 16 and 17 year olds to an offer of post-16 learning that meets their needs, and they receive help to choose well.
