Hmm, listen to him talk, tbh, IME he has another year. He's in year 8, so he's only just 13 (ie within the last six months). Most boys have finished by 14 - but Carlisle kids have to leave at the end of year 8, regardless of the state of their voices.

That is pretty unfair considering the boy is head chorister at a cathedral (Carlisle) which is no mean feat.
