普費斯
I was halfway through a PGCE application five years ago but went back to an industry I hate because it was enough to pay the mortgage and there was a baby on the way.
I've now spent give years in a hateful dysfunctional workplace. I've been furloughed for three months and got a letter a couple of days ago announcing restructuring and redundancies. Once I'd got over the shock I found I was more scared of going back than I am of getting made redundant (or worse stuck on a shit shift/less money).
Teaching websites say they're still looking for teachers. I'm fluent in Mandarin and could probably whip my French into shape if I had to. It seems I could get a 26 grand bursary. Sounds too good to be true surely? Will it be too late eto apply this year? Am I too old at 46?
I've already contacted one of my previous references and she's still alive and happy to help. I can probably scrape one up from somewhere else.
Am I too late, am I too old? I know it's hard work but better than a job that's made me genuinely miserable and ill time and time again surely? And just the qualification would allow me to get out of London. My current job is very London centric.
Any ideas/warnings/advice?
