STUDENTS are being offered help with study options after finishing their GCSEs.

Year 11 students in Greenwich are invited to attend an event at Ravensbourne College on the Greenwich Peninsula on September  13.

The event will feature exhibitions by 14 organisations including further education courses at schools and colleges as well as training and apprenticeship opportunities.

Recent changes to the law means youngsters must continue to train or study until the age of 18.

Greenwich Council cabinet member for children’s services Councillor Jackie Smith said: "This will be a golden opportunity to help young people decide the direction they want to go."

The event has been organised by council, schools, and the other exhibitors.
