Remove transition year in schools and make it a year in training for ALL 16 year olds to live away from home, no mobile phones ( or at minimum one hour per day at a set time in the evening). Training should include, understanding the community...meals on wheels, active age, tidy towns etc. They should all learn how to manage their finances including how to make tax returns, the value of saving and how to budget. They should all receive road safety training, learn to drive and pass their theory and driving test. They should understand politics and how a government is run, why their vote/voice is important. Health and fitness and nutrition should be taught, and expected of everyone. They should be taught how to understand food macros, how to cook a balanced meal and the impact food and fitness has on their quality of life... as well as the drain disregarding it can cause the health system.
