the education in britain is of a better quality, for instance a masters degree in america is only a bachelors in england.
2 :
maybe you could try the exchange student Program

College is nearly ten times as expensive and the level of the eduation fluctuates quite a lot around the country. The US spends the most per student of any developed country, but performs well below average. You should find a Sixth Form somewhere else in the UK or go to a Sixth Form college (you can get a regular stipend from the government for studying at A-Level). If you go to an American high school, you will also have to be an American citizen, and learn an entirely new curriculum in time for the standardised SATs.

You won't be able to travel on your own by UK law till you're 18. You can always stay on at Sixth Form at school if you wish and besides, college to the US is university to us in the UK so you're not really going to college because college is for adults and at 16 you are a child so you will not be able to take out a student loan.
