C.V.s

Got to update my C.V. and hating every second of it!

So, I started teaching in my 30s, now 51, but I've mostly done supply with one agency since the kids arrived and a large proportion of that is one-to-one with kids not in school, so that bit I think I'm ok with, but how much of the pre-school years should I include? The last time I looked at it, I did shorten it slightly by taking out, shall we say, irrelevant information (i.e. short term, low pay jobs) but it's still two pages!

Advice, please!!

I've never submitted a CV for a teaching job, but given all time has to be accounted for I've always given a full chronological account of the years. I didn't include part time jobs during college and university as that time was accounted for being a student.

Ok, thanks.

I did my PGCE in my 30s, so had quite a few jobs before then. Most were decent, but they still cover two pages! I'm just trying to work out how much is too much!
