Taking a pay cut to retrain as a midwife isnt really an issue as Dh earns enough that it doesnt factor in to day to day finances.

I realise there is more to being a teacher than just turning up to teach between 9-3. Im actually a huge lover of paperwork so I think marking, reports, lesson plans would be right up my alley. Either way nurse or teacher Im going to be busy and up to my ears in paperwork. Atleast as a teacher my extra hours of work can be done at home at reasonable hours, not at 3am in a hospital.

Ive still got some time to think on it but Im thinking more and more that teaching will be more beneficial than nursing. Thanks for the advice!
