DD1 is considering primary school teaching. She had about 5 weeks on a BA in Film Studies and Drama a few years ago, and has been working in a series of going-nowhere jobs ever since. She's now thinking about primary school teaching, and she's set up some work experience in a local primary to see what it feels like.
Does anyone have any advice on the best route? What's most likely to get her a job at the end - a BEd degree, or a degree in something else, then a postgraduate year? And if a degree in something else, does it help to have a degree in Education, or in a school-type subject? There seem to be a lot of degrees in a subject plus Education. Is there a preferred route for undergraduate entrants?
