I've recently gone back to full time teaching after a few years on a 0.4 contract. I like working in a school but the full time hours are mad and I'm feeling the pressure of delivering lessons everyday, all of the sen forms and meeting dates, parent's evenings, assessment etc
It's really getting me down. I am considering giving up teaching and being a TA for a while. Has anyone done this? Are TA jobs harder to come by and are there any other qualifications that I will need?
It may be a grass being greener situation, but i think TAs get the nice bits of working in a school, without being in class from 7:30am till 5pm.
And I can't think of any other job that will give me the school holidays off to look after my children!
