You have plenty of time to catch up on what you missed out.

You can also get an NVQ if you are working, this is free too, and can help you move forward.

good luck

Answer 3

You should be able to do most of them at your local college. September is the usual start time.

It's possible to do quite a few in the evenings if you're working. It's a bit of a hassle but can be worth it in the long run.

If your not working then believe you won't need to pay any fees etc.

Answer 4

go to the college and do them again

good luck

Answer 5

Ask at your local Job Centre Plus or Citizens Advice Bureau for information of evening classes for your chosen subjects. They should be able to help. Failing that there are always adverts in your local paper for courses starting in September.

Answer 6

You can resit GCSE's (or start them from scratch)  at your local college, either as lessons during the day or a night course, get in touch with your local further education college and ask about the courses they offer, they probably wont do every subject but will be able to offer you a selection. The college will have closed for summer now, but there might still be some office staff around able to help you, else try again in September when they re-open.

Good luck
