Real Estate and education (uni) advice needed

Hello, I am 17 years old, live in London, and have been looking into property investing for a few months and want to invest in real estate in the near future. I'm looking for advice on what I should do in terms of education/ schooling. I'm currently in year 13, doing my A levels this year (subjects: economics, math, computer science), and I do not know what do to next in order to move closer to my goal. Do I go to university? if so, what type of course would be the best? Do I go into a apprenticeship or employment? I'm really lost and I hope some of you can maybe share if is it even important to go to university based on personal experience and also maybe give me tips about what I can do.

My plan so far was to go to university and information systems (or something computer science related), then get a job and save for the first deposit, while in the meantime educating myself on real estate, attending courses, watching videos, reading books etc. Do you guys think this is a decent plan? If not, then please reply with any changes, tips or opinions, every reply is appreciated, thank you.
