I wasn't entirely sure where would be the best place to ask this question, but here will do. My boyfriend is undecided about his options for next year. I'm already in year 12 at Sixth Form, so unfortunately I can only give a bias viewpoint (obviously I'd prefer it if he went to sixth form, but after all, it is his decision). However, in our area it is generally seen that the kids who don't have any aspirations, who have done badly at secondary school and who don't really care about what they end up doing go to the local college. They scrape a qualification and then end up stuck in a job they hate, or not having one at all. The kids who definately want to go to university, and who have dreams and know how to achieve them, go to Sixth Form, as a general rule round here. I'm fully aware that it wont be the same pattern everywhere, so I apologize if this causes offense.
He's not a stupid kid. He could so easily achieve greatly (probably a bias viewpoint again, but hey ho) if he made the right choice. He wants to study Maths, Business, ICT and Graphics at A-level. Can anyone with experience of College and Sixth form help me (or rather, help him) decide? It'd be much appreciated.
