If I where to go into teaching I could only reasonably teach
either art or IT. I’d have more of a chance of teaching IT because it is a stem
subject. I’d be more likely to get a job as an IT teacher because I'd be a woman
teaching a STEM subject. On the other hand, my degree is arts related. So, I
guess I’d have a decent chance of being able to teach both. As for universities I’d like to study at, I think
this time around I’d like to stay within Merseyside as it is closer to what
little family I have left and is closer to my home town friends. So, it would
be easier to access support should I need it.
My top choice would be Edge Hill University. It used to be a
specialised teaching uni, so they have really high standards. Wirral Met College and Southport college are my second. My 3rd is The City Of
Liverpool College as it has a bit of a bad reputation but it’d be easier to get
into.
I’d fund my studies by working part time and taking out a
small loan to cover 25% or ¼ of the cost. The cost of a PGCE is around £9000 so the
loan would be around £2250. If I teach a STEM subject or decide to go into SEND teaching I can apply for a bursary/scholarship
which will also help. But I defiantly need to look more into funding. There are also other types of teaching courses available that don't cost as much.
