What happened

“What are you going to do next?” For teenagers receiving their GCSE or A-level results, it can be one of the most daunting questions to answer.

Why it matters

There’s often an expectation that, by the time they leave school, young people should know what they want to do with their working lives.

Common ground

But careers rarely follow such a straightforward path.

Perspective signals

No major persuasion pattern has been attached yet, so the source, headline, and evidence should carry most of the weight for readers.
