Now an ex teacher (mainly geography). Worked my way up to Advanced Skills Teacher (now a defunct role). Went into education admin for the last year of work at the same school I taught at, organising careers/trips/activity week/enrichment days/all manner of extra curricular activities. Then took voluntary redundancy so am a gentleman of leisure until pension kicks in. State education is being privatised by the back door with a corporate ethos developing through multi academy trusts and the like. If you can avoid the politics and get a job in the right school, teaching can be a very rewarding career. You'll never have a dull moment.
