When we're at school the teachers never actually take the time to talk about:
what non-university educated careers
what they involve
how to pursue trades based jobs
And it's weird, because I'm sure everyone would love to at least dabble in woodworking or some other form of craftsmanship. But they don't get the chance to.
The school-university pipeline works for a lot of people, but I don't think uni straight after school is the ideal situation for most people. It means we lose sight of what education is actually for, outside of progression to further qualifications
