Students Encouraged To 'Explore All Their Options'
Students in Northern Ireland have been urged to "explore all their options" after receiving their A- and AS-level results this week.
Making the call, Sinn Féin's Further and Higher Education Spokesperson, Caoimhe Archibald, said: "Firstly, congratulations to everyone who has their received results in A Levels or other courses. Whatever the results, this is a milestone as you move onto the next phase and decide what to do next.
"If you have not got the results you hoped for or are unsure of what to do next, take time and don't rush into a decision.
"There are many options in education, training or employment, so seek out advice from different sources and explore all that the universities, regional colleges and others have on offer including apprenticeships and 'earn while you learn' opportunities.
"There are many different pathways, it is not a 'one size fits all'; so choose the path that feels right for you."
