Ascension : New's From Two Boats School
Submitted by The Islander (Soo Matthews) 06.12.2007 (Article Archived on 20.12.2007)

It has been a year now since the current year 11 each wrote a bit about what they would like to achieve in the future. We have revisited that thought to see if any of them have changed their minds, or, are their aspirations for the future exactly the same. Here goes…….

My aspirations for the future is to use the 6 mounts I have left to concentrate on my GCSE and get the best grades that I can. I am currently thinking about whether or not I would like to go to college and study something else.  The thing I would like to study is the mechanics course or do some other form of engineering. If I do go to college and get the grades need to become a good mechanic, I would like to find a good job in the UK preferably working as a mechanic. If this is not possible I will come back to Ascension and find a job whereby I would be able to use the qualification I gained in college or do a sensible job doing something I would enjoy.

My aspirations for the future

 

Since the last time I wrote about my future which was over a year ago, I have changed my thoughts about what I want to do in the future.   I don’t plan to go to college yet, but it could change in the next six months.

If I do plan to go to college I would go to do a mechanics course for 2 years.

If not I would like to be a mechanic somewhere in the world. By 2009 hopefully I would have gotten a job and saved up, so I could by myself a real dirt bike (CR 250).

My aspirations for the future

 

I have now spent more than a year working towards my GCSE’s that will take place in May and finish June. After my GCSE’s I am hoping to most probably go to college for a mechanical engineering course. This will take most probably 2 years. When I finish college I am hoping to get good grades. I am hoping to maybe stay over in the UK to get a good mechanical job. If that doesn’t work out I will either come back to Ascension to get a job or go somewhere else to get a good job which doesn’t have to require mechanical work.

My aspirations for the future

We have five more months in school, before our time is up and we start our exams, it’s quite exciting because we get to leave school, but exams are very pressuring and you need to put in a lot of revision to come out with the grades that you are capable of getting.

I am thinking of going to college at this very moment but haven’t decided fully yet if I do want to go or what course I am going to study. If I do go it might not be worth coming back to the island because I doubt that there will be any suitable jobs to come back to. You get more opportunities from staying over there. 

If I don’t get to go then, I’ll just want to find a job that I enjoy and is comfortable in doing, I love doing many things but haven’t got my mind set on what I really want to do, I might decide not to stay on Ascension or go else where and start my future somewhere else in the world.

My aspirations for the future

 

I have now spent more than a year working towards my GCSE Exams which I will begin sitting in May 2008. I am hoping that I will get good enough grades from these Exams to go to college to undertake a mechanics course which will take about 2 years. I hope that at the end of the course I will come out with a reasonably good grade. I would then like to stay in England and get a job as a mechanic. If this doesn’t work out then I suppose I will have to come back to Ascension to work or get a job somewhere else preferably as a mechanic.  

Peace out

Stephen Anthony
