in secondary schools in a role the kids see as no one that needs to be taken seriously!)

I can't return to teaching yet, but have plans for the future brewing - childminding first, as soon as i can quit my current job (on maternity leave at the mo, so have to get that out of hte was first) but am going to make sure I am fully abrest of all current issues and get some training in.
