Schools improvement advisor says more variety is available
The school curriculum on the Isle of Man has been 'broadened' this year, according to the schools improvement advisor.
Thousands of young people have been back in today following a six-week break for summer.
Core subjects like maths and science remain of key importance, with vocational subjects like creative arts also available for students to take up.
Joel Smith believes more variety is available over here than in other jurisdictions:

Reaction as Tynwald members approve committee's recommendations
Police hope to extend Operation Needle next year
No motorbikes reported stolen over TT period
Victim Support: 'No World Cup match result should put you at risk of domestic abuse'
Charity running campaign during international football tournament
Dyslexia recommendations are 'practical, proportionate and achievable'
