Starting work
1. Most people spend a third of their lives at work and spend more time with their work colleagues than with their families or friends. So it is important that people enjoy their work as much as possible: and enjoying work means choosing the right career in the first place.
2.People in Britain can start at the age of sixteen, though many people stay at school after this age. For all people, as they approach the end of their school lives, the big question is - what are they going to do?
3.Most young people have several choices open to them when they leave school. Here are some of them. They can leave school at sixteen, and take a low-paid job, often a manual one, such as working in a shop or a factory. They can leave school at sixteen, take a job but spend one day a week at a College of Further Education learning more about the theory and practice of their work.
4.Many people who are learning a practical skill - for example, car mechanics, caterers, haidressers or typists - this. At the end of their training, they get aqualification which gives them a better change of promotion and higher wages. At the same time, they have gained practical experience in their job because they have been working while training.
5.Many people stay at school to take O-level and A-level G.C.E. examinations. This means working very hard and earning no money for two or three more years. However, with O-levels and A-levels, a student has many choices open to him.
6.If he goes to a Technical College, he can get a qualification in a practical skill such as engineering, art and design, secretarial work, business studies or child care. He can go to medical school or a hospital and learn to become a doctor. These training courses take from two to seven years.
7.If a sudent hs very good results in his A-levels he can go to a university and get a degree in a subject like Languages, Maths, Philosophy, Literature or Science. This normally takes three years. However, after such an academic course, many students still have no practical skill for doing a job. Some then take another course to learn to use their knowledge in teaching law or accountancy, for example.
