I have a neighbor from London and another from outside of Belfast. They were both tested in early 7th grade and told their grades weren't cutting it.
They were told they tested out to show that they would be good electricians. They went to trade school in 7th grade, but were also taught good life skills, like about banks, investing for the future, opening accounts for water and electricity, nutrition, grocery shopping, health etc.

And I am actually really good with this idea. Trade schools that teach the trades but also teach day to day living skills too.
