Basically, I could really do with the money.
Currently 0.6 worked across 5 mornings.
Here is why this is a good set up:
I stay in school most afternoons doing unpaid PPA so I can pick up my own kids from school and not have to do work at home (I often do have to bring work home anyway but not too much) and I have the freedom to not stay if I want - which I occasionally use for appointments, meeting a friend or just because I feel like going home. I really appreciate this freedom.
Pros of going full-time:
Money would be much less tight. I’m tired of telling the children (and myself) that we can’t afford things. Also, the set up I have I only teach English and Maths. I don’t get to do any of the lovely topic / art / music stuff which I would enjoy having a go at. (I’m new to primary - formerly secondary English - so I’ve never done those other subjects before).
WWYD? How do you cope with full time? My own kids are 7 and 10 btw, not babies anymore.
