(Not so much full time mentor- just need advice please).

I am a TA in a secondary school and thinking about making the leap to becoming a teacher. Imposter syndrome is rearing its ugly head and I cannot speak to the SLT at my school as I haven't decided yet. I would really appreciate any advice.

Pls PM if you can! Thank you so much.

What do you want to know?
One of my jobs is supporting support staff who want to move into teaching...

Hi MrsHamlet, thank you so much for replying. You sound ideal!

I want to know what it involves, if you think Im qualified enough etc.

You need a degree first. And you also need grade C/4 in English and maths for secondary, plus the same in science for primary.
If you have those, then you can apply for a QTS course of some kind. What are you interested in teaching?
