I’m almost 40 at currently working as a teacher in the post 16 sector. I think I am just about done with teaching and the pressure it brings.
I spend my days worrying about workload, stressing over issues with my department and worrying about whether or not I can keep doing this! Thing is, I earn fairly good money so I know whatever I decide to do I will likely be taking a huge pay cut.
I have been considering occupational therapy and understand I would need to start from the beginning again and totally retrain. Has anyone been to full time uni as an adult, and how did you manage financially?
Any teachers out there who have taken the plunge, left teaching and had a total career change?
