I would really appreciate some advice please. I am in my 40's and after getting 8 O'levels and 3 A'levels at senior school went to art college and did an HND in Design. Since then I have worked in magazine and book design and production. I have decided that I would like to retrain to teach. I went to the Train to Teach event in March and it was suggested that I topped up my HND to a degree by doing and Open University open degree. It appears that as my HND is 20 years old that it is not recent enough for them to take it into account. Do I have to now do an access course, followed by a degree followed by a PGCE, or is there a quicker way? I would ideally like to continue in my current publishing job and study part-time, but would be willing resign and study full time. I live in London, but would be willing to travel for the right course.
Can you give me any advice?
Thanks in advance
