Should pupils have to stay in school until 17?

Students starting secondary school this week will be legally obliged to attend until they are 17, under new legislation.

Do you think that this is a good idea? How old were you when you left school? Join the debate.

    Defiantely, then maybe they would stay out of trouble or not endup having babies at such young ages. I think it would be for their own benefit if this was to happen, though i doubt very much it will.Good Idea though.
