thank you., Ivy. Far be it from me to discourage you. But - despite having taught at a Government High School in the Phils for 22 years - my wife discovered when she came to the UK in March 2009 ... that the qualifications she'd obtained back home did not sufficiently equip her for a teaching career here in Scotland.
It seems that fully-trained nurses too, are having a hard time getting suitable work in hospitals ... and, instead, mainly find themselves assigned to Care Establishments for the Elderly. Unfair, I know ... but such is the job situation in the current recession.
However, don't despair; I see you're looking at "teaching support" ... and so it might be possible for you to enrol on an NVQ course leading to a 'classroom assistant' post at the end of it. And, in this respect, there will ... hopefully ... be someone on the forum who can point you in the right direction. Goodluck!
