1. Write in proper English. Get in that habit early and not use leet or text speak ever. HR and especially programmers hate it with a passion. Rewrite your post properly and I will answer your questions more specifically.

Get in the habit of not using leet or text speak. It comes off very poorly if the reader only has your post to judge you. It makes you look immature rather then serious.

Read TSloper's FAQ: http://www.sloperama.com/advice.html . It has some advice on education.

Advice about what specifically?

Enough to get you into University and/or as best as you can.

what i need to do next

Get into college/sixth form, get into University, get a degree. Considering you want to be a computer animator (currently, you may change your mind later), you want to focus but not limit your chosen subjects to areas related to Art and Design. Talk to your careers advisor at school for further information on the courses available.

What you can do now in your spare time is to try to learn how to model from tutorials. Go to 3dbuzz: http://www.3dbuzz.com/vbforum/sv_home.php . They have a wealth of information as well as forums for 3D modelling and animation, much more and specific then the information you would get here.
