No. The UK school leaving age is 16.

There are some changes coming up soon, but they aren't retrospective.
https://www.gov.uk/know-when-you-can-leave-school

"From the summer of 2013 you must be in one of the following until the
end of the academic year when you turn 17:

full-time education
an apprenticeship
full-time employment (over 20 hours a week) with part-time education"

So someone who is 16 this year will be required to continue in some form
of education. "

Added to this you aren't a UK national you're a foreign national living
here so you may not be covered by these rules anyway.
