I'm tentatively considering secondary teacher training, and was wondering whether anyone could advise on subject choice: maths or chemistry or computing?
I have various volunteer experience and regular employment over several years in secondary and primary schools, and out of school with children of all ages. I worked in my original engineering industry for over a decade.
I have a non-core science degree (and further degrees), with undergraduate-level modules in the full breadth of sciences, maths and computer science. Therefore, there isn't an obvious subject specialism for me, and I probably need to do subject enhancement, or some extra study (e.g. OU study). I think my preference would be chemistry, but I would love to understand more from teachers about how the teaching these subjects differs, and what I should think of to make the subject choice (if I do apply).
