I am thinking of going back into teaching part time for financial reasons.
I don't know if this is realistic in view of the jobs market or not. I am a regular but have name changed for this.
Given my age and my CV is it worth even applying? I will be looking ideally at independent schools, teaching learning support or SpLD students.
Potted career history:
*7 years full time in secondary private and state schools- English to A level.
Gap whilst DCs were young
*10 years in college of further ed.
*12 years as specialist tutor/assessor(dyslexia, Aspergers etc) working privately based at home and at the same time- some primary supply, some very part time teaching for 15 months in a private specialist school which finished a year ago now due to cuts there.
I am 56. I look younger and am fit- but is my age and lack of recent school experience going to be a big n-no?
