More than
130,000 students face being rejected from
university this summer amid
unprecedented demand for higher education, but
Tom Mursell, founder of notgoingtouni.co.uk is keen to stress to them and the
A level students who never initially applied for uni that there are
many alternatives open to them that the
careers advisor tends to shy away from.
The
pack – created with input from
Jim Knight MP, Minister for Employment,
Simon Waugh of the newly founded
National Apprenticeship Service and the Department of Working Pensions – covers
key issues for school-leavers such as:
apprenticeships; - gap years;
- distance learning;
- debt-free degrees;
- finding a job;
- starting your own business.
Contact information for
specific advice related to each career route is given, as well as
case studies detailing individuals who decided to follow each path.
