Leaving Teaching

By Clare Edwards

Leaving Teaching is for anyone considering leaving the teaching profession. You may be new to teaching, and have decided it's just not for you. Perhaps you are an experienced teacher who feels that the constant pressure to test, report and be observed has taken the joy out of the job. Whatever your situation this book will help you think through the issues logically, enabling you to reach a decision based on sound research and honest reflection. It will look at a range of careers within education that you may not have considered. If you make the decision to leave teaching it will help you weigh up the alternatives realistically and put together a plan that will give you the best possible chance of success. It will even address the emotional impact of no longer being a teacher. A series of exercises is included aimed at encouraging you to fully explore your own personal situation and practical advice is given throughout. The book is based on research from over a hundred and twenty ex-teachers from across the UK and is packed with comments and case studies of ex-teachers who have successfully moved on to other careers.
