I am thinking of applying for a full time one year PGCE either for 2019 (still places) or 2020 entry. However I have two young children aged 3 and 6 (or will be if doing PGCE in 2019). Have a husband who works full time but no other support.
Realistically do you think this is possible? Uni/ placements require 5 days a week 8am to 5pm with college work done in evenings and hols - which will surely mean I don't see my kids at all for the duration of the PGCE?
I also need a lot of sleep and like to be in bed by 9.30!
Be honest - if you have done a PGCE - do you think this is doable?
