So, it's a good time to ask: 'How important is education if you rvant to be successful in life?'

A iob for lite?

A university education used to be the safest path - a job for life Is this still true? Read Gavin's story.

'I always loved history but

I didn't know what job I wanted.

I worked hard at school, passed all

my exams and went to university

to study history After continuing studying and becoming a university lecturer, I thought I had

a good job and a safe career.

Unfortunately the university reduced the teaching staff I was the most experienced lecturer, but also the most expensive so I had to leave I'm 51 now I want to re-train but it's harder for me than

it is for younger people.'

Carl's chosen route would appear to be the riskiest, but could it

acrually be the most successful in the modern world?

'I

was the worst pupil in my school and left at 16.I tried a

training course, but it was the most boring thing I ever did and I

gave up after a week! I got a job in an electrical shop, and

quickly learnt enough to become manager Through hard work,

I made my way to the top and now I'm Managing Director of

one of the biggest software companies in Europe who needs

exams? work is a much better way to learn than any courses!'
