On the verge of handing in my notice and considering my options for after Christmas.
Tempted to leave teaching all together. DH would be happy with this even though we’d be considerably less well off. I would probably be healthier if I got out completely. But although I’m fairly disillusioned, I don’t know if I’m ready to give it all up. I’ve been doing it for so long and don’t know if I know how to do anything else!
So my question is, if you are a supply teacher, how does it work? Do you have to be registered with an agency? Can you just let some local schools know you’re available for supply and they deal with you direct? Do supply teachers get much work nowadays as lots of schools seem to rely on HLTAs for cover?
That was more than one question, sorry. Trying to weigh up pros and cons (whilst contemplating McDonald’s and Tesco application forms).
