051: What next for the (secondary / high school) Class of 2021
Episode description
If you completed your GCSEs, A-Levels, IB, BTECs or your equivalent of these high school / secondary school exams - CONGRATS! You did it! In this crazy time of Covid which has turned so much of our world upside down - you completed these significant qualifications.
So what comes next for you?
(If you are a parent / key supporter of someone who did - this episode will be useful to you too).
In this episode, we talk about what comes next at 16+ and then (from about 11 mins) what comes after 18+.
Broadly speaking - those next steps are likely to include further full time study (at a sixth form, college, university etc.), an apprenticeship, a job and / or a gap year... but you will know that even though it's not a hugely long list of options - details are everything and you may be feeling a wide range of emotions and / or uncertain about the next step for you.
Listen to this episode and hopefully you will be poised to readily embrace what comes next.
