Education doesn’t<br />
have to mean<br />
staying in school<br />
<strong>The</strong> government is increasing the age to which all young people in England<br />
must continue in education or training. This will mean that students who<br />
started year 11 in 2013 will have to continue in either education or training<br />
until they are 18 years <strong>of</strong> age.<br />
Raising the Participation Age (RPA) does not mean you have to stay in school<br />
or go to 6th form. You are able to choose one <strong>of</strong> the following options once<br />
you have finished year 11<br />
• Full-time education, such as school, college or home education<br />
• An apprenticeship<br />
• Part-time education or training if you are employed, self-employed or<br />
volunteering for at least 20 hours a week<br />
