‘What shall I do when I leave school?’ is just one of several important questions students make during their final three years at school. But it is one that they shouldn’t feel daunted by as this is an exciting time and, typically, the final step in their formal education. The most salient point to remember is that there is a spider’s web of people from whom they can seek advice: teachers, parents, friends and even current university students. Importantly, the final decision must be the student’s, and one that they are ultimately happy with.

Below are some important considerations which hopefully prove useful for students to review as they navigate this part of their educational career.

Maybe you’ve just finished your GCSEs and have decided to enter the brave new world of Philosophy at A Level. It might feel both exciting and a little daunting to be beginning a brand-new subject in Year 12, rather than continuing one, such as Physics or English, that you’ve studied for some years. This is the right way to feel! Philosophy is a challenging and demanding subject, but it’s one which all of my students find richly repays and rewards their efforts (even if I sometimes leave them at the end of the tutorial with their minds reeling). Philosophy asks us to question many of the assumptions we have made about the world and about ourselves. You’ll find yourself pondering things like: What counts as knowledge? How do I know that matter exists? What’s the right way to live? What is happiness? Are there objective moral truths? Is there a God? And if there is, why is there so much suffering and evil in the world? What is consciousness and how does it relate to the physical world?
