At various stages we all have to make choices which will impact on our future. This might be picking our new secondary school, making choices for GCSE's, deciding whether to continue to sixth form, taking a gap year, going to university or going to work.

If you are unsure of what you are good at, what subjects you excel in, the sorts of activities you are interested in, it is a good idea to discuss your options with other people such as friends, family, or teachers. There are also a range of organisations which are there to help support you through making these important decisions.

Connexions is great for careers guidance and can take you through all your educational options - whether further education, sixth form college or on-the-job training.
