I returned to uni at 45 this year, to do primary teaching. I am passionate about the teaching of reading, so I chose La Trobe University. I have two children and the only reason I can take this time out of paid employment is that my husband’s wage can support us and we are dipping into our slowly receding savings. Three more years of uni feels daunting at the moment, even though I (mostly) enjoy it.

My teaching degree (a masters) was absolutely useless. Ironically, it made me appreciate how, to some degree, my bachelor of arts was quite rigorous.
