Not sure of your next steps?

Whether exam results were a surprise, or you're not sure where you'll be studying this autumn, it's time to take action.

There is a place in learning for everyone - guaranteed. 

Crucial: All young people must start in learning until age 18.If you don't have September plans or need more support, contact the EET Team.

Where do I start?

A good place to start is talking to your current learning provider. They should provide support to help you find another learning destination if you not continuing with them.

Take Action: You can visit your local FE College to ask about courses and late sign-ups, which are available until the beginning of term.

Ready for work?

From age 16 you can start an apprenticeship. You can apply for these throughout the year, but now is a great time to make applications.
