I've been thinking about this on and off for a few years, and each time for one reason or another have done nothing about it. I'd love to hear some opinions either from those already in the profession or anyone doing mature age study.
I am seriously considering going 'back' to uni to do early childhood education - yes I want to go teaching.
When I say 'back' to uni, I last attended in the early 80's, so really the fact that I was ever there is pretty irrelevant.
I'm fairly sure I have to do STAT (special tertiary admissions test) as I did my TEE in 1978!
For your opinion to be informed I'll admit to my age - 47 and the fact that I have no intention of giving up working to study. So it'll all be part time / external study. On the plus side, my work is pretty cruisy, though full time. The kids are out the house and I have the full support of Mr Minx. Is it worth it? Am I too old?
Would love some opinions, thoughts from anyone who may gone down this path.
