It is often said that if you want to succeed in life, you need a proper
education
Use synonyms
. While there may be arguments for making
school
Use synonyms
 compulsory until the
age
Use synonyms
 of 18 , I disagree that
this
Linking Words
 should apply to everyone. Perhaps the strongest reason for not leaving
school
Use synonyms
 early is that it prepares you for your working career. If you leave
school
Use synonyms
 early with only a basic
education
Use synonyms
, you are unlikely to be able to find any skilled work. Indeed, the
education
Use synonyms
 you receive between the ages of 16 and 18 is crucial for anyone who does not want a lifetime of unskilled work in a factory. Another compelling reason for remaining in
school
Use synonyms
 until 18 is that
school
Use synonyms
 provides moral and social
education

 too.
This

 is particularly important for
people
Use synonyms
 between 16 and 18 who have many temptations and benefit from the organised framework that
school

 provides. Young
people

 who stay in

 until the

tend

 to be more responsible and help build a stronger society. There are,
however

, equally strong arguments against making
school
Use synonyms
 compulsory until the
age

 of 18.One
such

 argument is that not everyone is academic and that some
people

 benefit more from vocational training.
For instance
Linking Words
, someone who wants to become a car mechanic may find better training and more satisfaction in an apprentice scheme. Another related argument is that, in today's world, young
people
Use synonyms
 are maturing ever more quickly and are able to make their own life decisions by the
age
Use synonyms
 of 16. To my mind, everyone should be encouraged to stay in
school
Use synonyms
 until 18 both for social and career reasons.
However
Linking Words
, I believe it would be a mistake to make
this
Linking Words
 compulsory bearing in mind that different
people
Use synonyms
 have different needs and abilities and the possibilities of other forms of vocational training.
