| Message | Yes, as long as higher/further education is within reach for everyone who wants it, regardless of background. Many people I grew up with couldn't stand the idea of staying on longer than 16. And they've not all been unsuccessful;) |

| Message | education neednt be the same for everyone , I consider apprenteships and such being a valid use of the last two years within the education system , adults are forced to lots of things , even in the PLP's system they would have to pay his flat tax , 18 is simply a sensible length of education required to produce intelligent qualified citizens regardless of discipline it has nothing to do with the age of adulthood. |
