Stress and exam pressure.

From the day students begin Primary school, the majority of children get exams thrown in their faces are are put under the spotlight. All they get is revison, revision, and more revsion. The students also get alot of pressure thrown onto them and for sure, they do not want more exams once they are to leave school. On the other hand, some students may like the fact that they are gaining knowledge, which can be a very rare thought. To sit in the exams, students need to be confident and have the energy. A minority of students feel uncomfertable and tend to get nervous whilst getting prepared for their exams and sitting them. Some might say that the exams prepare the students for when they go for their interviews and futre tests, however, some may argure that they are totaly unnessecary and nothing but a waste of time. The lack of pressure is too much for some to cope and might end up quiting further education. A person must be strong and willing if they want to carry on with there education, the majority of people do not feel like this after they have done their exams.

Financial Issues

The lack of money that one will have to earn in the futre will always be an important issue. This is a particular issue that will change peoples mind and make continue with their education, the idea of money coming there way is always a positive thing. However, to get to that stage in life, you also need to have money. Money plays a big part in this and can make vast changes. If a student is not able to afford fees and so on, they will not consider further education, however on the other hand, if there is a student who has the money, there is a more chance of them going onto further education. If the student knows that in the futre they will get well paid jobs, they are very likely to continue with their education.

Ambitions and goals

If there is something that a student really wants to do in the near futre, they will be determind and go all the way. They will complete all their exams, challenges and cope with their stress and pressure. There is also a negative side to this aspect. If a student had an ambition in mind, which many of them do, and later on, they were dissapointed because that particular course was not available or hard to find etc, they would probably give up.

If a student is willing to acheive their goals, it would surley be a brilliant idea for the reason that there would be more people wanting to go onto further education. Having a goal or an ambition is deffinetly a positve thing.

Overall, i think that the idea of further education is wounderful and not only will it benifit the student itself, but the society and surroundings too. The exams and pressure forced onto the students should be decreased which will make matters better. If there was a fall in fees, there would with no doubt be a huge difference. If a child were to have the correct support since the beggining of shool, and not to much pressure, it would make life so much easier because that way the student iwll boost its's confidence.
