I can't wait to give up my current job. I'd like to train to teach but I'm well aware of the very heavy workloads involved. It seems to me that the only way of achieving any sort of a work-life balance is to teach part-time. My sister (who re-trained as a teacher a few years ago) reckons that even if I could do the PGCE part-time, I'm better off just getting the year over with as quickly as possible. But can the NQT year be done part-time? As far as I can tell, part-time teaching posts almost never seem to be advertised. The people I know with part-time teaching posts have done the job full-time and eventually persuaded the school to let them reduce their hours.
