Meanwhile Sophie Graham, National Careers Service Adviser, looks at the academic route into engineering or science if you decide you want to come to it later in life.

Ryan Heath, Senior EU Correspondent and Associate Editor at Politico Europe, joined Share Radio Morning Money to bring us the sharpest political analysis in the business.
