I am in the process of writing my application for a taught Masters course. I graduated in 2000 and then worked in a related field until the birth of my first child in 2005. During that time I undertook some vocational courses. I then had a bit of a career break until 2008 when I set up my own business in a field related to my original degree. I also did a number of "professional" qualifications. In 2010 my 3rd child was born and I haven't worked in that field since. I set up another business but it was more of a hobby. My 4th dc is now 3 and I feel ready to go back to the subject I love.
Within the application I need to list other qualifications. Do I need to put them all down? Some of them seem fairly insignificant i.e. sports specific coaching awards but they were very relevant to my job at the time.
I also have to provide a referee. I no longer know of anyone who knows me in an academic or professional capacity. Certainly not in relation to the subject matter. I am however a school governor and was thinking of asking our HT to provide my reference. Do you think this would suffice?
Any help would be gratefully received thanks.
