UK EDUCATION AFTER SECONDARY SCHOOL

In the UK, students can choose to end their formal education at 16, but in England they must stay in full-time education or do a training course until the age of 18.

Many 16-year-old students go on to study at different vocational colleges. Vocational education usually lasts up to three years. During this time, students learn job-specific skills. That is why vocational education is often referred to as career education or technical education. Many students still go on to higher education after receiving their vocational qualifications.

Alternatively, students can go toa sixth-form college or stay at their secondary school if it offers a sixth form for two more years. Students usually focus on three or four subjects that they are interested in or related to the degree they want to study at university. Exams are taken at the end of the two-year course, and the grades are used to apply for university courses. Not all students leaving sixth form go to university. Some prefer to get into a vocational course or find a job.

At university, students study for at least three years in order to get abachelor’s degree. After the first degree, they can study for one to two years to get a master’s degree, and three to five years to get a doctorate.

Work in groups. Discuss the similarities and differences between education after leaving school in Viet Nam and in the UK. (Làm việc nhóm. Thảo luận về những điểm tương đồng và khác biệt giữa giáo dục sau khi rời ghế nhà trường ở Việt Nam và Vương quốc Anh)
