I am giving up a very good job because I haven't been able to travel home to see family this year. I can't continue like this because it is soul destroying, not seeing them.
I've managed to get an online job, and have picked up some extra exam marking, both because I don't want to go back into UK schools while there is a possibility of covid.
But I am starting to worry that when the spectre of covid has gone, that I will then be too old and out of touch to reenter teaching in person, in any form again.
I'm assuming it will be at least another year before covid has become less of an issue, by which point I will be 57. No pension until 67 so 10 working years left.
Am I making a huge mistake?
Can I use my bus pass on London buses?
