Learning - What's Out There

When you leave school you will be faced with the choice of either staying on in full-time education, getting a job or entering training. This part of our site shows you what is currently available in the Tees Valley.

Right now you are probably being bombarded with information and advice from all directions. Parents teachers and friends will all have their own ideas of what they think you should do, so at times it's even difficult to think straight, never mind make the right choices!

Everyone has your best interests at heart, but the best person to make the decisions about your future is you.

This section of our site will provide you with the information you require to make those important decisions.

You'll find summaries of what you can expect from Years 9, 10, 11 and 12-14, and explanations of the different qualification levels from 0 to 4.

For more information about choices in learning, talk to your personal adviser or pop into your local Connexions One Stop Shop
