    Hi,
    Very insightful video.
    I am currently in the UK and I have been a teacher back in Nigeria for 7years now. I want to get into teaching in the UK as a Teaching Assistant, of which I have almost 2 years experience in, I have toddlers and scared of the extra time one spends working as a full time teacher and I need sponsorship as a teacher. What best route would you advice I take to launch into the career in this new location? Do TAs work extra hours too? Will I be able to get sponsorship as a TA?
    Thank you.

      Hi Pamela, it may be difficult as reception is classed as the start of primary school. Therefore, you need QTS. However, I will say, call the school you wish to apply to and ask the question before you apply.

      It gets easier if you remain in the same class for more than a year. This will reduce the hours because you already have the teaching plans. However they tend to move teachers to other classes almost on a yearly bases for many reasons. one of it is so you can gain experience and develop in skills.
