Well my news today was that my local headmaster has said he will support me if I do my Level 3 Teaching Assistant course (starts in September) and I can volunteer and he will give me one of his other qualified TA as support.
Our local college is only doing Level 3 this year but I am currently working on my level 2 qualification in Youth Work so can go in at Level 3.
Couple of years time I will be with you in spirit!0 -
Good Luck with the course Ray.
I volunteer 2 days a week at my local Primary school and I love it!!!
It took till I was 40 to decide what I wanted to do in life but its the best thing I ever did. (apart from my DMP):TDEBTS @ :idea: 1/1/07 - £25,800:eek: DEBT @ 04/05/11 - NIL

Can I do a huge GGGGGGGGGGGGGRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!
After last week and deciding to do a payment review as in two years no one has asked for one, I did one! My Lloyds card went up from £5 a month to £10.30 - Lloyds have written to say its not acceptable. Are they totally flipping clueless??!!
Enter as many foul words as you like there - anyway I shall ignore letter and send payments and hopefully they won't charge interest and I learnt one big lesson never again will I bother increasing to them independant of them asking they can cuckoo off!
Morning everyone
If they say the increased payments are not acceptable, tell them that you will put them back to the old amount which they must see as acceptable as they have accepted them for 2 years!
Seriously though, what about just increasing the payments without telling them? (too late for this one, I know) It sounds like they hound people for a while and then get bored and leave them at the bottom of the 'to do' list until something wakes them up.0 -
Well one company I did just alter the standing order without telling them and I think you are right, I should have followed my gut instinct and saved a stamp!0
