He says he wants to be there, but drags his feet when it comes to work. He's like a square peg trying to fit into a round hole.

What age do most public school Pre-K classes take? What is the minimum and is there a birthday cut-off like Sept. 1 or something? How many kids are typically in a class? Did your child benefit from Pre-K? Any additional info about Pre-K would be appreciated.

By the way, I live in West Virginia if anyone has any info specific to WV.

Thanks!

Im studying English Literature, how hard is it to gain a first? also I heard that you have to get atleast a 2:1 in your second year to be able to get a first overall.

... it's bloomin' rubbish!
I love the actual teaching bit but the rest of it is pretty awful. There are so many stats and bits of nonsense paperwork to do. The forms and educational reforms are endless, the meetings are pretty pointless and you have very little autonomy over what you actually teach.

The kids don't have any respect either because they know that teachers are powerless to help them. Often their parents don't care about their education either.

I really, REALLY wanted to make a difference by teaching but now I'm not sure I can stick it.

Would you be a teacher??

Classes are getting harder, and I've already completed around 60 credit hours at the end of this semester. I'm supposed to be applying to my major's course program this fall, but I'm just lacking motivation, feeling kinda burnt out, especially knowing that I still have about 2 1/2 years to go. How do I stay motivated?

I graduated from a good uni with Ba hons degree in music. However, since leaving i dont find that anyone takes me seriously. I have 10 top GCSE's and 4 top A levels that i worked hard for, so why cant agencys help me? Yes, im moaning, but its really disheartening. I realize if i had a business degree i would probably get further, but just want to know. If you were an employer and i showed you my cv which heavily showed my music experineces, would you ignore my cv?

I am applying for lots of teaching jobs and also an MA in Decadent Literature. My real passion lies in literature and I've found that teaching leaves very little scope for this. I am also applying for a scholarship to do the MA but it would mean that I'd be skint again and, if I didn't get offered a PhD, I'd also have to do the NQT year after my masters'.

I have to admit that teaching doesn't inspire me like I thought it would and I find the whole training and prospect of doing the NQT year rather patronising.

I really don't want to be stuck without any money and no career prospects though. What should I do?
