I currently teach part time in a job share in lower KS2. I have 1.5 days off to look after my kids who are 2 & 4. I have been offered full time from Sept in Y6. I am considering it as we need the money & I would love to do Y6 & I am thinking its a good career move as I would eventually like to move in to leadership.
However, I am concerned about the increased workload & particularly the marking & assessment pressures of Y6.
I guess I am asking how other full time teacher mums manage? And how doable is the workload of Y6 with little ones at home?
My eldest will be at the school I teach and my youngest already goes to nursery 3.5 days so he will extend to 5 full days. He will be 3 by then.
I would like to do it - for me - but I can't decide if this is going to be detrimental to my family & the time we have together.
Would love thoughts of other mummy's and any teacher mums esp. Y6.
