My DS has has trouble with written work since for ever but shows enthusiasm and aptitude for D&T with resistant materials, and electronics. He says he might like to become a blacksmith.
He is just starting year 10 and is deeply unhappy with school. He feels a failure as he can't produce written work to the standard required.
I would like him to start on some vocational training now, hopefully leaving his present school to do so.
Does anyone know if this is possible? I am going to get him some extra tuition to help with Maths GCSE.
