What Next After School?
  You may be thrilled that your school days are coming to an end - but are you prepared for life after school? There is a wealth of opportunities and possibilities to choose from - higher education, gap year, travelling, or employment. Which route will you take? The prospect of making these important decisions can evolve into a confusing and somewhat daunting time.

What Next After School? is now firmly established as the key guide for helping students understand the options available to them. It contains practical information on:

  • education options - including vocational training and academic education;
  • gap years - travelling, working abroad
  • the world of work - practice recruitment tests, interview techniques, training and work experience;
  • practical issues - accommodation, debt and equal opportunities;
  • useful contact details.
This essential new fourth edition also includes case studies illustrating how other students have adapted to life after school.

"Each book will help the reader explore and evaluate the options available to students at key transition points in their lives in a clear and accessible manner and at £8.99 are affordable additions to careers/Connexions resources."
-Newscheck, April 2005
