Today I finished a weeks work experience at a primary school. I chose to complete my placement at a primary school because I have always been really passionate about teaching, but I wasn't sure how I'd deal with the little ones. I just finished writing up my report and it has made me think I'd still like teaching secondary more. This is despite my mum trying to convince me to do primary because of the whole attitude thing in secondary (it is worth noting that she works at a primary school). It's not like I'm not patient or anything, I LOVED my work experience, but I think in the long run I wouldn't be able to hack having to simplify everything!
So, I feel it is necessary for me to reignite the primary teaching VS secondary teaching debate! Any reasons why you'd pick one over the other would be much appreciated.
