A child is anyone who is not over compulsory school age. Compulsory school age ceases on the last Friday in June of the school year in which a child reaches 16 (the school year begins on 1 September and ends on August 31). Employment means helping with a trade or occupation which is carried on for profit, even if the child receives no pay.
