School Leavers
Whether its time to leave school or you are just thinking about it, there are lots of things to think about first.
Some of the questions that you may be asking yourself at this time are:
1. Do you know what you want to do?
2. Do you want to get into further Education, for example College or Uni?
3. Do you have a career in mind?
4. Do you want to get a job and start making money?
It can be confusing and it's important to get the right information and advice before making any decisions. You should talk to your guidance teacher, careers teacher and even other organisations outside of school such as Careers Scotland or Job Centre Plus.
For more information visit our Features page and look at the Further Education and Looking for a Job sections.
