9 years is a long stretch. You deserve a medal. Wouldn't it be great if politicians could listen to teachers? That could be your new career...

Only 9 years. I'm just coming to the end of my 32nd year. Call yourself a teacher?

Sorry only joking. The last 10 years have seemed much longer then the first 22!!

Obviously you have valuable experience working with children but without any futher information (qualifications, subject area, salary expectations etc.) it is impossible to give you a good answer.

Anyway, good luck for the future.
How about adult education or working for a training provider. Your local LSC will be able to give you details.
I sympathise,I have been a teacher for 29 years and the job has changed in the last decade. If you are able to financially, give yourself a break and look at jobs that you would never have considered before. Your local job centre may or may not help- (The one I went to was rubbish!) I was lucky and an acquaintance suggested a job in a totally different age range and I love every minute. I'm working with people who care and I've got my weekends and evenings back. I hope you find something that suits you .Good luck.
