School is not right for everyone, and this is a perfect example.
Ed Sheeran is currently on the highest-grossing concert tour of all time, but the massive artist's music career didn't always look so promising.
An old college report is on display in an exhibition in Ipswich, called, Ed Sheeran: Made In Suffolk . The report card is shocking because it shows that Ed Sheeran made 6 F's!
He failed a songwriting course, as well as modules for professional musicianship, music industry prep and style development.
Ed's father is the one who put together the exhibit, and he says, after only three weeks on enrollment in the ACM, Sheeran had become, "disillusioned" by his studies.
We'd say he made the right call!
