Sunday evening and the sun goes down , the PC fires up and the ebate at Dave's rolls on relentlessly.

For Henry, do not worry on my account I gained Postgrad and QTS many years ago, my post was simply to underline the value and this need among our colleagues here online as a means to improving their professional qualifications from a 4-week initial training cert to becoming, what Stephen Jones so wonderfullly described as, qualified teachers.

For all of us,
A quick check in, reveals a little input is needed just to show there are jobs out there, but who receives them is beyond me, you only have to check the web pages instead of haranguing each other on here.

So DA da DA

My apologies, dear moderators, for copying from another website and thereby depriving Dave's of an advertising benefit. I have therefore removed the last 3 letters of the college name from the ad.

You know where to search for it folks, it is in the North East of England so you will save on rent for sure

There are jobs like this out there. Thin on the ground, but there nonetheless

thrifty/31/Mark Loyd challenged readers to find "decent" jobs. The word decent doesn't mean "stellar." It simply means "adequate." But nothing is adequate for dear old thrifty/31/Mark Loyd with his Turkish wife and his children in tow. The booze bills alone must be staggering.

Where there is one job, there are others. Teachers with energy, ambition, qualifications, and skills will find them. thrifty/31/Mark Loyd will not.

QED

Decent for you is 17 0000 a year you backpacker.

A job paying 17,000 is pretty adequate for a young single person with a recent qualification.

The punishment: spending all that energy and going to a far off land to discover great truths, i. e. next time do better research and have a backup plan.
