For the school problem you could wait until they all graduate but if your really in a pinch you can close the school (i.e turning off the work button) and all of the children will imediantly become laborers. 




plus side: you get your workers up quickly and you can fix it if you have been to quick to build a school before your ready (I'm guilty of this a lot of the time)




Down side: all those children will not be educated when they go back to the work force so you end up wasting the time you spent starting their education and still having the problem of uneducated workers.




Things to consider:

• I only do this when absolutely needed.
  
  
• If you have more than one school they will first move to the other school if it has avalible spaces. If there are not enough spaces they will fill the empty spots and then go to be laborers.
  
  
• A strategy I like to use ,now that its avalible to me, is to build the mini school (holds 5 students ) for early game. This get filled very quickly and then any other children will go directly to laborers. This gives you a pretty good balance of educated and uneducated laborers going into the mix. You end up getting the workers you need to maintain early growth while still having some students being educated and lessening the education gap.
  
  

hope all this info helps.

Actually, it does help.  Currently, I only have 1 student (I built it very early)!




I don't know why I didn't consider closing it as I've closed other buildings, depending upon the season and their stock.




Thanks.  I'll do it as soon as I start up the game again.
