UK EDUCATION AFTER SECONDARY SCHOOL
In the UK, students can choose to end their formal education at 16, but in England they must stay in full-time education or do a training course until the age of 18.
Many 16-year-old students go on to study at different vocational colleges. Vocational education usually lasts up to three years. During this time, students learn job-specific skills. That is why vocational education is often referred to as career education or technical education. Many students still go on to higher education after receiving their vocational qualifications.
Alternatively, students can go toa sixth-form college or stay at their secondary school if it offers a sixth form for two more years. Students usually focus on three or four subjects that they are interested in or related to the degree they want to study at university. Exams are taken at the end of the two-year course, and the grades are used to apply for university courses. Not all students leaving sixth form go to university. Some prefer to get into a vocational course or find a job.
At university, students study for at least three years in order to get a bachelor’s degree. After the first degree, they can study for one to two years to get a master’s degree, and three to five years to get a doctorate.

The best job in the world ... probably
A. Back in 2012, Andrew Johnson planned to apply to a film school after graduation, rather than look for a job. But then his dad noticed an advertisement for a job with toy manufacturer Lego. Andrew, who was already a Lego fan, sent in an application. It included a video of himself making models. The company loved it and invited him to participate in an unusual interview. He had to compete against seven other finalists in a model-building test. Andrew won. As a result, he was employed at Legoland Discovery Centre in lllinois as a Master Model Builder. “Lego was just a hobby, but now I can do what l love and get paid for it,” said Andrew happily in an interview.
B. Some film providers like Netflix employ people to watch new films and TV series, then ask them to make a note of what type of film it is (horror, rom-com, etc.), what age group and type of person might like it. The film provider can then recommend it to their members. Joe Mason finished his degree in film studies about two years ago and didn't know what to do next. Then he read an article about film taggers. The job was so fantastic, and he wrote to Netflix. At first, they weren't interested, but when Joe told them he speaks fluent French, they gave him a job. He watches French films and TV programmes. “lt's a great job because I can have flexible working hours," said he. The only problem with the job is that Joe can't choose what he wants to watch.

Công việc tốt nhất thế giới… có lẽ là
A. Trở lại năm 2012, Andrew Johnson lên kế hoạch ứng tuyển vào một trường điện ảnh sau khi tốt nghiệp thay vì đi kiếm một công việc. Nhưng sau đó bố anh ta thấy một quảng cáo về một công việc cho hãng sản xuất đồ chơi Lego. Andrew, người đã trở thành người hâm mộ Lego, nộp đơn xin việc. Nó bao gồm một đoạn phim anh ấy ngồi làm mô hình. Công ty thích nó và mời anh tham gia một cuộc phỏng vấn kì lạ. Anh ấy phải thi đấu với bảy người bước vào chặng cuối khác. Andrew thắng. Và kết quả là, anh ấy đã được nhận vào Trung tâm Khám phá Legoland ở Illnois với tư cách là một Chuyên gia xây dựng mô hình. Andrew trả lời phỏng vấn trong hạnh phúc: “Lego chỉ là một thú vui, nhưng giờ đây tôi có thể làm điều mình yêu thích và được trả công cho nó.”
B. Một vài nhà cung cấp phim như Netflix thuê người để xem những bộ phim và những phim bộ truyền hình mới, sau đó yêu cầu họ ghi chú về thể loại phim (kinh dị, hài kịch lãng mạn, v.v.), độ tuổi và những kiểu người có thể thích nó. Nhà cung cấp phim có thể gợi ý phim đó cho người dùng của họ. Joe Mason hoàn thành tấm bằng về nghiên cứu điện ảnh hai năm trước và không biết mình sẽ làm gì tiếp theo. Sau đó anh ta đọc một bài báo về người gắn thẻ phim. Công việc rất tuyệt và anh đã viết thư cho Netflix. Ban đầu, họ không hứng thú cho lắm, nhưng khi Joe nói anh ấy biết tiếng Pháp, anh ấy được nhận. Anh ấy xem những bộ phim và chương trình truyền hình của Pháp. Anh ấy nói rằng đó là công việc tốt vì anh ấy có giờ làm việc rất linh hoạt. Vấn đề của công việc là Joe không thể chọn được thứ anh ấy muốn xem.
