Due to family circumstances I left school at 16. I was a slightly above average student and left with 9 GCSEs all with good pass grades. I promised myself (and friends who thought I was mad to leave at 16) that I would finish my education at a later date when my earning a wage was no longer vital.
A few years later, I'm almost 22 and am married with 3 kids (2 stepsons and one bio DD), the youngest is 18mo, and I feel that the time is right to turn my mind to pick up my education. Dh agrees and is very supportive. Fortunately DH earns enough to enable me to be a full time SAHM and for us to still live a comfortable lifestyle without a second income so financially the courses are also do-able.
What I want to know is have any of you done your A-levels as a correspondence/distance learning course ? How did you find it ? Would you recommend the establishment which offered the course ? Or perhaps you know someone who is doing/has done their A-levels this way and can recommend a good place to do it ?
Cheers
