I was talking to someone in their early 20s, who is stuck in minimum wage jobs but struck me as unusually intelligent.
I asked her if she had gone to college and she said no because with her dyslexia, she had failed her English GCSE and other similar subjects. She had done very well in Physics, maths and another science with As. She said that she could not get on a science A levels course at an FE College because of the English fail.
I am not in contact with her about her education but she says herself that she feels unfulfilled. Is there something I could direct her to, to give her guidance on aiming higher and what the first steps would be including funding? I suspect that her household income is modest and she has a baby.
