There are millions of people making it

There are millions of people making it and disabled people getting qualification - if not a degree, a lesser qualification. So, why should my son and me not make it - severe non verbal autism with interest in animals and children

I'm not sure what that stands for. But I hope he makes it. Best of luck.

In the UK a GCE means general certificate of education in various subjects and are usually taken at 16. You can either leave school then or use them for further study in higher education. I think you call them credits.

If the latter for example you would stay at school or go to college and take your 'A' levels (advanced) at 18.

Then you might leave school or, depending on your grades and what career you want apply to university. x

I have my own library, that contains mostly picture books of places around the World we visited. We have about , give or take a thousand books now, they may have explanations of the place and history etc, they help my Congenital Short Term Memory Disorder they bring back memories. We also have books on wildlife etc. Most of the books are second hand from charities or Amazon, they are quite cheep and most are in good condition. They do push the brain. The biggest education tool is the internet. you will find pages on everything from plants, animals insects, history and on and on. Yes I forget what I have done next day, all I do is make a note or look at the internet list of what I have done the day before and revisit the site.

You can always given time extend your learning at a later date, I just do if for the sake of a diversion. We purchased eighty booklets on Scotland, They contain postcard photographs of all areas, many attractive and interesting to see.
