After failing to even get to interview for the PGCE teacher training (this was due to only Eight spaces being up for grabs!!) it has meant my reconsidering my next step.
As I now have the luxury of time, I have decided to make sure that 11-18yrs is the age group for me. To achieve this I have started a placement working in the art department of Hayle Community School. I have already been in to help with a Primary Day, where children from local primary schools come into the school to enjoy fun workshops. This was easier than I anticipated, the children were great and I enjoyed the making of olympic medals! I have started to work with the GCSE students, giving ideas, looking at their coursework and encouraging them. I look forward to seeing them progress.
I hope to gain some experience in College aswell to see if I'd prefer 16yr+.... watch this space.......
