Hello,
We've been asked by BBC Radio 5 Live to find out what you think about the planned changes to the school leaving age.
From the start of this academic year (2013/2014), the Government is increasing the age to which all young people in England must continue in education or training. From this year, they'll be required to continue in education or training until the end of the academic year in which they turn 17, and until their 18th birthday from 2015. Further information for parents from the DofE can be found here.
Did you know that the changes were on their way?
Has there been enough done to communicate these changes to parents?
What do you think about the changes?
As always, we'd love to hear what you all think about this - so do please let us know!
Thanks,
MNHQ
