Just wondered if a teaching qualification (PGCE or B.ed) means you are qualified to teach any age? Would a secondary trained teacher be qualified to work in a preschool or Year 2 and vice versa?
Would an experienced teacher be considered for a TA post in a different age range as unqualified as they didn't have HLTA or rejected from a preschool post as they didn't have Level 3 Early Years?
I'm asking as I'm not sure if I'm qualified for a position and not sure if a PGCE and years of experience 'trumps' a Level 3.
How hard is it to move across from secondary? Any experiences of this would be marvellous thanks.
