I've been keen to do a postgrad in primary teaching for years, but raising my own kids took priority. So, after childminding for several years, I'm seriously considering applying to train next year once my youngest minded child starts school. I'd be 46 by the time I qualified though, is that just too old? It's one of these things that if I don't do it, I'll regret it, but I also want to be employable & would 20 year olds automatically be employed ahead of me?
