When can you take a Gap Year?

A gap year is mostly taken by people between A-levels and Higher education, around the ages of 18-19, but it is a great opportunity at any age to take time out from your life to do something different.

Gap years don't necessarily have to be a year in length, so getting away could be fitted in:

• After school
• During school/Uni holidays
• During/after Uni
  
• In between jobs
• In retirement!

The important thing to remember is that you can take a gap year whenever you want. Not taking one when you're 19  years old doesn't comdemn you to a life without the experiences your friends have had! Whenever you feel like you want to do something different or take break from life, then a gap year could be for you.
