      I am 48 – quite old and back when I was 15/16, not very many people when on to higher education. Nowadays, you have to go to 6th Form and many go on to university.
      I have always been a homely person so it worked well for me to stay in the area with friends and family. I think there is more pressure you young people compared to 30 years ago and part of that is deciding your future and if that means leaving home for the best college or university, then take it.
