Decision made....

.... forms filled in.

I am sending off my application today for my Post-Graduate Certificate in Social, Emotional and Behavioural Difficulties. 

In a couple of years, hopefully sooner, I'll do the SENCO PostGrad. (And it'll be easier to get a SENCO job because I'll have the PostGrad in SEBD)

A couple of years after that I'll do the Complex Needs Post Grad.

Then the Uni will add them all together and award me my Masters in Education.

How cool will that be.  I'm excited and nervous at the same time.  I know what I want to do, and I know it's going to be a LOT of work (they don't just hand out degrees either though, although I know the She-Ex thought I hadn't had to work for my degree at all!) but it is learning for the joy of learning, as well as learning for a purpose.

The LEA will hopefully fund this years course.
The SENCO is funded by the LEA when I get a SENCO post.
The last one will be funded by me.

I will have to fund all books and stationary and so on this year.  I'll manage though. 

I'm excited.
