Message | I think children sould have the responsability to choose for themsleves. What if they have a good reson for leaving at 16? |
Date | 19:06:55, May 21, 2008 CET | From | New-Revolutionary Communist Party (NRCP) | To | Debating the Complete Education Act |
Message | What if we were to make the resolution that even if those student over 16 were to be out of formal education (ie, school) then at the very least they are required to be taking part in a form of vocational training within a profession? This happily encompasses apprenticeships, employee training schemes and even informal learning alongside a career. I recommend this position to the house. |
