    Will college kick me out if dont do work experience?
    So,

    I have a a good job already and on wednesday I was expected to go to work experience for 8 hours free of charge, of which I dont need to do simply for the fact that I dont need experience as Ive had four jobs already and like I refuse to work for free when I have a well paying job for a 16 year old.

    College set me up with a work placement which is Wednesday-Friday 9-5 and the location which is around 20 minutes away so I would of been expected to pay for travel as well, again I refuse to do this.

    The course Im doing is Business Diploma Level 3, So will they kick me off the course if I dont go? Im not really bothered if I do kicked off I only go college cause there aint anything else much to do in the days

    Thanks

    They could ask you to leave the course, yes

    The WE is probably part of the Diploma and you would be required to complete documentation associated with it
