sad situation... I am agree. I am from Perú, and I had the chance of leave from school with 15 years old, it was simply for me good marks and my early start (3 years old). But currently children start the school with 5 years old, so now is not so easy to end before 17-18

Raising the age to 18 will only turn the UK's schools into what the USA's have been for decades, a free babysitting service with little or no actual education.
The problem though is that kids who leave school, ditch out, etc, end up sitting at home playing video games and using drugs. They have no drive to succeed at a school, they have no drive to succeed anywhere. Kids like that wont try at anything unless obligated to.
Secondly, kids that age dont know the value of an education, and would inevitably regret leaving later in life. I see kids getting their GED's and Associates all the time, hoping to make up for lost time and opportunity.
Furthermore, the only people who support this video are likely in high school... so your supporting population is highly biased and poorly educated as is.
The people who succeed in life, professionally, without a high school diploma, such as the ones you listed, are in the few and rare minorities. They arent rich and successful so much as they are "famous" and successful, which is very different... they got picked up for their looks, charm and particularly EXCEPTIONAL skills... not because they sat around home dreaming.
Any kid who thinks they will be in that minority is deluded, egocentric, arrogant... very much typical of any high school kid
The intelligent ones are the who who study and photocopy the answers in their minds and write it down on paper and thus get classed as "intelligent", those who say I don't agree, question, and have ideas are graded with low marks. The education system came out in the 1600s and is yet to be updated. I don't agree with scholing until 18,it should be a choice not an order : )
So youre saying that society of the 1600's value education more than we do? Yeah, retarded. You have to already be stupid to want to stay stupid. And society has an ethical obligation to correct that. Getting educated never hurt anyone. How have a ridiculous mentality that only proves my points.
I said that educational system was started in the 1600's and hasn't been updated since. Kids that are right sided brain thinkers who are not accademic but who are thinkers, creative, artistic need a chance as much as the left brained thinkers who are mainly accademic thinkers. The bright kids are the ones who take in and repeat what they have been told and relay this on paper. Kids who question, ask and rebel are classed as the dumb ones,! The education system needs to be updated.
There are plenty of kids who are not deluded, egocentric, arrogant and just need a bit of understanding and an education system that understands the needs for these kids so that these kids can grow and learn and are allowed to be individual and as special as they can be.
I got to say love your spirit and your positivity but with respect you really must release some of that ego and listen to other opinions to what your opinion is, after all a one sided view isn't healthy and we need diversity rather than uniformity in life.
@ronnocdlanor I disagree. Diversity isnt healthy when peoples opinions are wrong. And no, I dont believe peoples opinions are right. For the most part they are all wrong. Diversity is ridiculous notion. People would like to believe it because it makes them feel better about themselves... after all, what better way to not be faced with a challenge yourself than by preaching tolerance to everyone else.
@CogitoErgoCogitoSum Diversity is healthy and whose to say peoples opinions are wrong? Diversity is not ridiculous. Preaching tolerance to everyone else is to open their minds and reeducate. The educational system has been since 1600's surely we need diversity or at least look at things in a different light? I say again what is the norm? a brilliant child? One who merely takes all in and reproduces it on paper and gains full marks or child who questions this and has his own mind?.
@ronnocdlanor You and I are talking about different things now. When we are takling about objective reality, the capacity to question and think for yourself, to comprehend, is important. That is Objective truth, though, and the emphasis is placed on the students ability to reason.
But opinions are not truth. They are personal delusions. Opinions are wrong 99.9999% of the time. Doubting what is true and holding ones delusions on high is NOT a virtue.
@CogitoErgoCogitoSum Society is not healthy to support tolerance when diversity is wrong in the first place. Believing 1+1 = 3, no matter how determined someone is, still makes them stupid and wrong. Truth is objective. Believing falsities under the pretense of diversity is absurd... blind tolerance, blind acceptance... is hurtful to societies progress.
@CogitoErgoCogitoSum I do welcome your opinion and find you to be a highly intelligent person and respect that but I have to agree to disagree that you say opinions are not truth? Then opinions of our ancestors formed our truth? Are we not to question to progress and think, ok, but I can see another side to that? Are we deemed 2nd grade students because we disagree with "the truth" as we have been told it is. What if we look at the other side of the coin? x
stayin in school is he right thing even though i didnt want 2. but if u wont to now thees thing then you shoud do your best in school and study hard. im 17 iv expirenced it my self and i have got a job witch i get loads of money from and ges that i will have a good futcher in life and u could if u try hard in school
"Better to put the leaving age back to 16, but have a leaving exam". Thats your GCSE's, but loads of kids dont take them. So how do you know that people will take your "leaving exam"?There needs to be a way to ensure we learn and if that means forcing us.Plus it's not like, they HAVE to go to school or college, its training!If that gives you the skills you need for living and ensuring that we have the skills to work and get decent jobs, instead of complaining that immigrants are taking our jobs.
It just means in Post 16 Education there will be be sets and stream so that the slow, badly behaved and the average and super bright learners well be comfortable!
The sad thing is if you let people go with only level 1 and 2 quificaions will not have any jobs ot do in tihs country !! that is why all studnets in britian must get a level 3 becuase that shouws you have the basci skills not level 2 which is GCSE C and a bove! IN BRITAIN THERE ARE NO UNSKILLED JOBS ANY MORE !! EVEN A ROAD WORKER NEEDS TO READ,WRITE AND UNDERSTAND NUMBER!! NOT THAT ROAD WOKRER ARE BAD BUT THIS IS FACT!! AND THE EXTAR TO TWO YEAR WILL GIVE THE SLOW PEOPLE A CHANCE OT CATCH UP!
a Level 2 in english and maths is enough for a road worker to read, write and understand numbers. You dont need a-level maths and english to be a road worker and you dont need thoughs a-levels for I would say more than 1/2 of the jobs in this country.
I know, im in sixthform. I've done and see the stuff.
Not really becuase the kids who piss about in lessons and who disrupt and bully will damage the education of other student who want to learn and do well.
I think the current options for post 16 year olds need rethinking...offering more apprenticeships and re-establishing the value in practical and creative learning as an alternative for less acedemic students. Everyone is intelligent in different ways.
they should have the leaving exam and for the ones which have failed be put in another 2 years to get those basic skills that way we can make sure all kids are academically successful
I totally agree with your side comments -- Some people will distract other because they will not want to be there, i say: let the idiots go do Sh!t jobs... Then when the people that stay on get DECENT jobs, they will have people to provide services for them... Like McDonalds etc.
i hope they don't raise the age 2 18 because then all the badly behaved people who don't care about school vocational or not will stay and make it hell 4 those who do care
