You don't mention why he doesn't like to study, so I'm going to make a suggestion based on one facet only, that he has trouble academically in school.

Where I live in western Canada, they have programs for students who don't fit in with the regular school system of study, study, study.

My friend's granddaughter was having a lot of trouble to the point she was going to drop out, and was moved into a program called Vast where she went to the local community college and studied a trade for the school year. Her granddaughter took auto mechanics of all things. However, she could have taken chef training, hairdressing, wood working, welding or a host of other subjects. She still had to go to the regular school to take a couple of subjects that were necessary to graduate. Can't remember what they were, but perhaps English or math or some such subjects.
She went to school because this was something she was interested in. It allowed her to graduate and have her first year of a trade. She never went on with auto mechanics, but she has valuable knowledge never the less to do with her car.
