Well its an interesting question. I think that seen as the government have decided education of sorts is compulsory until 18yrs of age now, it would be wrong to expect much contribution between the ages of 16-18 where many students either do A levels or do vocational courses. Those going into work from 16 now still have to be gaining some form of paper-based qualification, so its impossible to avoid 'further' education so it should probably stay subsidised the way it already is.
GCSEs in my opinion aren't adequate education for any person. I would like to see more schools in our area doing A levels at the school rather than having to go to colleges.
