I would like to join the Royal Marines when i am older and i would really like to go to military school instead of normal secondary school. i am 14 years old. Is the Commando Training Centre in Lympstone just for training the recruits or is can you go at my age? also are there any other military schools for teens of my age to join and if so are they for Royal Marines or just the army? please help!!! thank you.

Minimum age for direct entrants into the Royal Marines is 16, but you may start your application process aged 15 & 9 months.
No, the Royal Marines do not provide an alternative high school/secondary school education at the Commando Training Centre Royal Marines (CTCRM), Lympstone.
Regarding UK military schools. You may want to do an internet search for the "Duke of York's Royal Military School", "The Military Preparation School", or the "UK Military School", then do your own research from there on. (I think you'll find they do preparation courses for all branches of H.M. Forces).
Best of luck.
Who cares if its not US Marines what does it matter?
