No. The State has a responsibility to provide a complete education to all its citizens.
Exactly. In the Netherlands you have to be in school until you're 18 unless you graduate from the highest or second highest level of high school before you turn 18. This, I think, is sensible policy.

For a lot of kids being in school after 16 just doesn't work anymore, though, so there has to be the possibility to actually start working or do internships within the framework of an education program.
