Well, after the last few months of ups and downs in my career-related life, it seems like everything is finally working out.

I haven't mentioned it on here, but back in October I applied to study for a Primary PGCE at Southampton... I had my interview last Friday, and I've just found out today that I have a place on the course (they have 450+ applicants for 140 places). I'm over the moon!

I have also resigned from my current job, and am meeting with 3 headteachers next week about working as a Classroom Assistant in their schools for the summer term. It's going to be a vast drop in salary, but to do something worthwhile it's definitely worth it.

So, I have 4 1/2 weeks left here, then 3 weeks off (paid annual leave, yay!), then hopefully I'll have work for the summer, before starting training to be a teacher in September. Wow! :)
