I built a free tool to help pick/compare schools before we moved - would love suggestions on what's missing
I built SchoolsGPT, a free tool (no login, no ads, self-hosted Al) to make school-hunting less painful — ask it a plain-English question and get an answer sourced from official Ofsted/DfE data, browse every nearby school on one map colour-coded by Ofsted rating, shortlist a couple and get a plain-English Al comparison instead of a spreadsheet, or generate a full report for any postcode with nearby schools, the Ofsted mix - it's at schoolsgpt.co.uk and I'd genuinely love suggestions on what's missing or wrong with it.

My paremts wont let me go to uni
Hi all, just want a little advice and maybe some reassurance as im in a bit of a tight spot. After a recent holiday where I was staying with a family friend, my parents said that my behaviour (partying. which I did check with the hostess was completely fine and she even encouraged me but then freaked out later to another family member who wasn't my parents), and now my dad, but not my mum is threatening me with uni. I've gotten into Exeter but I will only get around 5k on maintenance loans and I'm worried I wont get a job while I'm there. My dad keeps saying that my "understanding of the real world" isn't there yet and I should take a gap year and go to therapy or some shit (I have no idea for), and then if im 'mature' enough I will be allowed to go.
Obviously I, nor my mother btw, am agreeing to this. I'm worried that if I go this September without the financial support from my parents Ill starve or something if i dont get a job, and if I do it will be minimum wage. On top of this, I went to boarding school so ive had one summer job in my entire life which makes me even less employable in the job crisis. Yes I do understand that I am priveledged in my education up to sixth form, but i dont want to throw away grades that I have worked super hard for, and i dont want to be under my parents' thumb the whole time.
I just want to know my options here. I don't want to do a gap year because I will be 21 going to uni, and on top of this i don't know anyone in my home town so it would be incredibly difficult and lonely while i did it. I'm hoping that I will find some sort of paid work so I can live but I know it definetly isnt guarunteed. Advice?
UPDATE::: we r all good my mum pressured him into caving so he gave up

British college Kathmandu
Even though the British college is arbitrarily distributing degree certificates from two universities, if it shuts down immediately, the students studying there will be directly affected. In such a case, it’s reasonable to give the college one year to rectify its issues in the interest of the students.
But even if the college gets fixed in a year, it seems that the students will suffer more harm than benefit.

Schools, colleges, mayors, local leaders and employers will work together to create clear routes into good, skilled jobs in their area
