Where you learn

You can choose IF you want to go to college and sixth form, and if you decide that you do want to go- you can choose which college or sixth form to go to.

It may be that your school has a sixth form and that you want to stay on there, or if your school doesn't have a sixth form or you dont want to stay there you will need to look at colleges near by.

Where you learn is important, to make sure you are happy and that you are successful in what you are learning.

Make it easier to choose by deciding whats most important to you and what your willing to compromise on.

You may want to go to where your friends are going, you may want to go to a college as close to home as possbile. It could be that you look for a college with a good reputation or a college that offers the specific studies you want.
