My 16 year old had issues going to school during secondary, was a grammar school and he got top grades. He got into the local 6th form, it was perfect, 10 minutes walk prestigious, I got him a suit and everything. He started in September for induction and I got him up the next day but he wouldn’t get up and kept refusing then when I got home from work it turns out he’s quit.

Have you asked him why?

He didn’t like it

Lots of things in life he won’t like so he needs to suck it up

YANBU but if he had issues attending school then it’s no surprise.

Do not give him an option though - he either goes back, goes to a different college or does an apprenticeship.

Was it his choice to do this sixth form?
Does he have a career in mind?
