I would have loved to be a primary school teacher but im too dense……..maybe in another life :shock: :shock:

You’re a bit batty, lucy, but very far from dense. And more to boot, you’re a young ‘un, you have lots of time to retrain. You should go for it if you really want to be a teacher.

lol’ a bit batty……….aww bless ya trusty rusty but im not young im 40 this year lol xxx

Well said Rusty =D>

And Lucy …..40 is not old….. You are a spring chicken my lovely !! :lol: And certainly not too old to start Teacher training either [-(

When I was 44 I answered an advert in the local paper for people to teach various subjects. It was at the College of FE and I started doing four and a half hours a week, which rapidly expanded to a full-time teaching job.

I signed up to do an on the job teaching qualification, and also an HND which I never actually started as I was teaching three of the modules.

We then had the opportunity to move to France so after two years my teaching career finished but they were two very enjoyable years.

Admittedly a primary school is a different proposition to a College of FE, but a good friend of ours re-trained to be a primary school teacher when she was 40 so it is worth looking into what options there are.
