Career path & what to study

[peanutter]

DH studies from home, with an online uni.

He started with Monash, and has moved over to UNE as there is a much broader range of subjects aimed at remote access students.

He's doing his arts degree - started just after DS1 was born. He does 2 subjects most semesters. He started 3 one semester, but it was too much. One semester (when DS2 was born) he dropped down to just 1 subject.

Looking at doing Dip Ed after Arts finished.

[Ca Plane Pour Moi]

I studied when DS was little, but I did four hours study a day at Uni during school term time, so I wasn't at home. It was great fun. It would have been hard with DS around though - he's a very full-on child.

I went into teaching, with a view to going into safeguarding. I didn't want to be full-on child protection/social work, but I did want to ensure children who weren't classed as "at risk" were also looked after properly. I'm now open to the idea of being a special needs teacher, either at a special needs school or as a non-teaching head of special needs at a normal school.
