OK, so after taking advice from you lovely ladies about retraining (as I'm having no luck finding work after 5 years out), I've decided to become a teaching assistant.
Don't worry, It's not something I've not thought of before! I was offered a work based training place in Kent. I used to help out a lot in my godsons class, and his teacher and HT asked if I'd like to do it. I had wanted to train as a teacher after a levels, but had to leave early so it never happened.Was about to start and finally after 6 years of trying I got pregnant with my dd.
So, I've been helping out in dds class, and it made me recall how much I wanted to do it before.
Does anyone have any tips at all? I'm nervous of asking dds ht (who is lovely), but I'm getting nowhere with the skills set I have now, and 5 years, despite having my freelance work on my cv makes me unemployable.
