If teaching in the adult sector is something you would like to do the PTLLS may be helpful: http://www.carltontraining.co.uk/training-courses/instructor-training/ptlls-city-a-guilds-7303.html

I was looking into it before, its the starting block but once you have it you can teach adult learners and i think most places will train you up from there

I can see what your saying about the positives of having children early. I have applied for a few volunteering 'jobs' and hope I get the opportunity to work for them. I actually found one to be a junior mentor for 12 months which is right up my street. I have everything crossed that they give me the chance. This placement coupled with the open degree (childhood & youth) I start in February should hopefully give me a good enough curriculum vitae to get a paid role in education. I also have a City & Guilds in Learner Support & done placements which involved assisting adult learners with their key skills (Literacy/numeracy/ICT) which I got in 2010. Hopefully this can be relevant too as I can relate these skills I learnt to children too.

I have to say again, Thank you ladies as I am feeling a whole lot better today after 'hearing' your advice.
