I’m going to have to put this on long term hold (at least till circumstances change.) I tried it for a couple of weeks and it really is too much to do a full time job and a part time degree, while trying to squeeze a life in there too.
I got a full refund because I cancelled within the first month, so no losses there – I’ll concentrate on my current career rather than looking to the next thing for a while

OK since gaining my teaching qualification, I’ve decided that was not the right direction for my life. I got a job working for Nottingham City Council, and in the last few weeks got promoted to “Court Liaison Officer” which I really enjoy. Basically preparing all the paperwork for hearings and evictions (for non paying tenants or anti-social behaviour) I find it amazingly interesting, so…....
I made the decision that I wanted to persue it further. I’ve been speaking to the lawyers telling them I want to get more involved and they are going to start taking me to court and yesterday I rang the open university about doing an LLB Law Degree in the evenings.
The deadline to start in February is 5th Jan, so I’ve got to make a quick decision! Because I already have a degree in Chemistry, I can transfer 120 credits onto this course, meaning I can do my law degree part-time over the next 3 or 4 years.
The fees aren’t that bad, especially because I’ll be working full time. And if I start going to court and learning what the lawyers do, it’ll be like double studying!!
I’m really excited about this, and teaching is definitely going to sit on the back burner for a while (in fact, I think it was always on the back burner – glad I tried it and realised I didn’t like it though)

Don’t want to do supply!
