Either way works, every trade is convinced they are essential, the difference is only with education do we then ask the trade itself to do the research showing us how good they are, honestly I dispair of the field as I work with 'alternate kids' who will never make it to uni and so are completely ignored by the education industry, as are about 50 percent of all kids in high school.

Essentially we are putting every kid in the country through a system that works towards only one outcome deemed succesful, uni, that is inapplicable to the majority and plain impossible to a large minority of kids within it, on top of that the universities themselves are based on an reletively unchanged model from the 16th century that is inapplicable to much of what we want it to do.
