It does depend a lot on whether you still want to work with young people. For example, your current qualification would stand you in good stead for some jobs in youth work, social work, advice and information etc. If you want a complete change i would suggest finding a qualified and competant careers advisor (your local job centre should be able to find you one) and thinking bigger. You have skills such as planning, communicating, time keeping, explaining complex ideas, working within restricted resources, patience, persistence etc... Maybe some form of adult training?

Some ideas to earn extra money: 1. Tutoring students 2. Using skills you have 3. MLM businesses The best job one can have fulfilled these criteria: - Using the talents, skills - Having passion for it - Creating the difference in other people’s lives - Making unlimited money Have you heard of an internet business? Personally, I find that an internet business is an easy way to create a passive income because: 1. Requires small to zero capital 2. Gets started right away and easily 3. Allows you to work from home or anywhere in the world as long as there is an internet connection 4. Has unlimited potential to earn money 5. No age or education requirements 6. Doesn't need you to have to have a company 7. You can help him too so it becomes a family business What you need to do is to learn about the internet business as much as possible to discover whether it is for you and what your strategy is. There is free information around. Good luck.

Hi - it seems a pity to take away all that experience and knowledge from the education system. Unless you really can't stand the thought anymore could you not specialise in something or become self-employed in some aspect? For example train to work with dyslexics (that's what I do now) or provide science or art days whilst travelling around different schools etc. Just a thought.

Tobe honest, many Jobs nowadays are looking for evidence of skill levels, not specific experience alone, so the fact that you are and a graduate with a wealth of varied work experience leaves the door open for many immediate work and retaining opportunities. -
Why not have a look at other workin the public sector

Well you have a degree in education so I think that limits you somewhat, how about doing a masters in something and going from there?
