Information on Raising the Participation Age (RPA)
Information on Raising the Participation Age (RPA)
Your choices
What is ‘Raising the Participation Age’ [RPA]?RPA is a duty placed on all young people by theEducation and Skills Act (2008) to participate ineducation or training until their 18th birthday.Supported by parents/carers and schools, thegovernment expects you to make your owndecisions about how you wish to participate. We provide advice and support to young peoplethrough the Southwark Choices Team (see page 6for more information on the team).
Why was it introduced?By staying in learning and training you can gain the qualifications and skills you need to helpyou to succeed.
Advantages include:
> Making it easier to find and stay in a job
> Having the ability to earn and give you a greaterchoice of career path
> Being able to compete in the future local jobmarket; providing pathways to opportunitieswhere you can develop your qualifications andskills further in order to support your futurecareer aspirations for example, higher education(university) or higher apprenticeships
> You will have a greater chance to develop theknowledge and practical skills that employers arelooking for.
Does this mean staying at school until I am 18?Once you complete your GCSEs and secondaryeducation, there are a number of options availablefor you to choose from:
> Continue in full time education or college
> Start a work based learning programme such asan apprenticeship
> Start full time work alongside part time learningwhich leads to an accredited qualification
> Volunteering for a minimum of 20 hours a weekalongside part time learning which leads to anaccredited qualification
> If you have your own business and are selfemployed, you can combine this with part timelearning which leads to an accreditedqualification.
What duty does Southwark Council have?> Sufficient suitable education and training
provision for all young people aged 16 to 18 inthe borough
> Promote the effective participation in educationand training of 16 and 17 year olds in our areawith a view to ensuring that those persons fulfilthe duty to participate in education or training
> Make arrangements to track the activity of 16and 17 year olds, and identify those who are notparticipating in education or training or whohave left provision, to enable us to offer supportas soon as possible through the SouthwarkChoices Team
> Identify 18 year olds who need support toengage with education or find work and whoaren’t already receiving support from theirJobcentre Plus.
Your choicesChoosing the right pathway for you
How to choose?You may already have an idea about your futurejourney, such as applying for higher education or aparticular career. Some careers and universitycourses require you to have qualifications in specificsubjects. Speak to your careers adviser at school oran education and training adviser in the SouthwarkChoices Team. Based on your talents and needs theycan advise on the best decision for you.
If you are unsure, it is usually best to go withsubjects you are likely to do well at and enjoy. Youwill still need to check what you can do with thesesubjects and try to keep your options open.
The following checklist may be useful for you toconsider when thinking about which pathway isright for you:
> How does the course build on your strengths andinterests?
> What will you be doing on the course and whatwill the workload be like?
> Where will the course lead you to and how doyou think the qualification will bring you closerto your career goals?
> What will you need to do in order to achieve agood result?
> Is there someone you know who you can talk toabout this option?
> Are there any other similar opportunities youcould consider?
Foundation, pre-apprenticeshipprogrammes and short coursesIf you leave school in year 11 with no or few GCSEs,BTEC or other level 2 passes, you may need to dosome short courses or a pre-apprenticeship course.
A pre-apprenticeship course is a stepping stone to getinto the industry of your choice. Completion of a pre-apprenticeship course will help to prepare you for theworking environment in the selected industry, giveyou some basic skills, or improve your existing skills.This will help you to progress onto a level 2 course ora traineeship. There are also training providers whooffer short courses or work experience to help youdevelop your employability skills or gain other typesof qualifications relating to specific industries e.g.CSCS (Construction Skills Certification Scheme) card,first aid, football coaching.

I looked at a lot of different options, even some thatweren’t related to my A Levels. I found this reallyinteresting civil engineering apprenticeship which wouldgive me the chance to work across lots of teams and hadgreat opportunities to move higher up in the company.
I knew there weren’t many women in engineering but thatdidn’t bother me one bit. I didn’t give it any thought whenI was applying and I haven’t noticed any difference nowI’m on site. When they offered me the role I decided togive it a shot and it’s been great.
When I finished the apprenticeship I started work on myHNC. Once I’ve finished studying I’d like to be a projectmanager with CH2M. They have so many projects inLondon and overseas with lots of opportunities. I’d love totravel with the job if I can.
An apprenticeship has given me all the good parts ofstudying but with real work experience. It’s connected meto opportunities I might not have had if I’d gone touniversity. Missing out on freshers’ week was tough at thetime but now I’m set up for life. I’m really glad I went forthe apprenticeship when I did."
Fiona Keenaghan, Coastal Engineer
"I knew university wasn’t for me. I had my A Levels under my belt but my goal
was to get a job that set me up for a career straight away."
