Robbie Williams, the world-famous singer and performer, is looking to further his education by going back to school and completing his GCSEs. Despite leaving education early to pursue a career in showbiz, Williams is determined to achieve his qualifications and continue his personal growth.
However, with his 2025 world tour and the release of his highly anticipated musical biopic Better Man, Williams will have to carefully balance his education aspirations with his busy schedule. According to reports, the singer has been researching home education options as a way to fit his studies into his busy life.
In a recent interview, Williams shared, "I've been wanting to set up a university, but I wouldn't be able to attend if and when I do, because I didn't get any GCSEs. I got nothing higher than a grade D, and everything else I failed or I didn't turn up for. I really want to go back and get them."
The former Take That member, who joined the band at the young age of 16, has always been full of ideas and is now considering the possibility of a TV show where he goes back to school in an "age-appropriate way." Williams may not even remember the name of his English teacher, but he is determined to make up for lost time and achieve his goals.
As depicted in his biopic Better Man, it was during Williams' GCSE year that he was discovered and joined Take That, ultimately leading to their massive success. However, Williams has always felt self-conscious about his lack of qualifications and shared, "Throughout my life, I've felt really stupid because we didn't know about dyslexia in the '70s and '80s in Stoke-on-Trent. I've got dyslexia, dyscalculia, ADHD, but we didn't have those then, so I left school thinking I was a dumb-dumb and it's taken ages to get over that."
Despite these challenges, Williams has achieved incredible success in the music industry, both with Take That and as a solo artist. His studio albums have reached number one, with the exception of one, and he holds the record for the most Brit Awards with 18 wins. In his biopic, Williams is portrayed by a CGI monkey, and his music plays a significant role in telling the story of his rise to fame and personal struggles.
Better Man, directed by The Greatest Showman's Michael Gracey, also features an all-star cast including Steve Pemberton, Alison Steadman, Raechelle Banno, and Damon Herriman. The film will be released in UK cinemas on December 26 and has a limited release in the US on December 25 before a wider release on January 17, 2025.
Despite his incredible success, Williams is determined to continue learning and growing, proving that it's never too late to pursue your dreams.
