no tips, but just wanted to say good luck Smile

Is this in a secondary school? What's the school like?

I've been working full-time in secondary (but no planning or marking to do) for almost a year, and I'm just getting to the point where I don't collapse with exhaustion at the end of the day when I get home.

It sounds like you want it - "would suit me down to the ground"!

Private or state/single or mixed sex?

Did you want to be full time? Will you be able to sort out childcare etc?

lots of luck, beetroot - the job sounds ideal and so you. I am sure you'd be really good at it.

If you feel a bit iffy about the time commitment, you might be able to negotiate less hours later if they offer you the job.

Also, you never know, some other applicant might want to job share. I have a friend (actor turned drama teacher) who teamed up with another drama teacher to offer their services to schools as a job share.
