    Well i can't believe it, i was at another college today helping out because Ofsted were in and most of my class were on trip to the zoo, i helped out on sports leadership level 2 and i saw a girl called Freya who did my course early on this year and had to drop out because she is not very confident and now does level 1 resilience which is a course to get people more confident and into the working world or on to level 2, we were really chatting alot during today about her course and my course and what she wants to do next year plus she was home educated and even remembered that i was as well.

    This afternoon i also spoke to another girl who does skills for working life because she seemed really upset and i don;t like seeing people upset and now i have her on facebook lol

    I didn't see your posts but good on you for apologising, it takes strength to admit you were wrong.

    It's going to take time Sam, even for experienced workers finding the right role can take time.

    Have you looked into further voluntary work, or a work placement?

    I do loads of voluntary work, the trouble is it doesn't give me any money. This is the problem, i am told that they want me to do voluntary work but then don't believe me when i actually say i do loads anyway

    You have 12 pages on this thread and a lot of it is people offering you advice.... (myself included).

    Why not re-read it all and jot down anything which sticks out?
