    Help from any Teachers out there

    Hey everyone,
    So I have wanted to be a primary school teacher for as long as I can remember.
    I have even enrolled to complete my Bach. of Education. I deferred when I fell pregnant with Mr. M and I am aching to go back.
    The problem I am in is I am the only income earner for my famil so I need to work full-time.
    We are also planning bubs number 2.
    So I am thinking once I have bubs number 2, enrol in the Teachers assistants course (which is 6mths fulltime) as I get 9 mths paid Mat leave.
    Become a teachers asstant, then re-enrol in my bach. of education as My cert in Teachers Assistant will exempt me from quite a few modules in my Bach.
    It all sounds fantabulous in my head but I thought I would get some advise from all you lovely ladies

    Does it sound achievable and how much approx does a teachers assistant earn??
    I am in WA if that makes any difference


    I want more than anything in this world to become a primary school teacher, I just dont know how I am going to get there..........................................

    p.s. I hope I have made sense
