As thousands of children return to school we ask ourselves, is it really worth it? <br /> <br />While a formal education is currently the norm, is there perhaps a better route? <br /> <br />More and more school leavers are opting out of sixth form and university in favour of practical apprenticeships and applicable skills, so I see no reason why that trend won’t gain traction for even younger students. <br /> <br />Maybe if more British youths packed it in during primary school they’d have a chance to learn a useful trade on the streets – like dicing a pineapple in under 60 seconds. <br /> <br />Unfortunately, I doubt this early academic exodus will ever happen, so for now we’ll just have to gawp at the day to day lives of foreign people. <br /> <br />For instance, this guy in the Philippines really knows his way around the aforementioned fruit. <br /> <br />What’s normal to him, amazes us!
