student studying in further education Explanation: I'm afraid I know nothing about the education system in South Africa but I daresay it's based on the British one. In the UK a diploma student wouldn't be at school, he'd be at some sort of further education institute - technical college or possibly uni. The problem with a diploma is that it can be anything from a minimum vocational qualification at 16 (for those who leave school as soon as they can) to a post-graduate diploma studied at uni. Seeing as the diploma students here are being taught drama by a uni student, I suspect it's the former case here. However, all I can say for certain is that he's not at mainstream school and he's not studying for a university degree of the Bachelor/Master/Doctorate type. |
