A friend of mine approached me at school today and asked if I knew of any 
websites that give teachers advice on what to do if they want to leave the 
profession.  Her husband is totally disheartened by the profession (which I 
feel I do more often than not now) and is thinking about a different career. 
Does anybody know of a website that would help him, or of course know 
someone who has returned to the real world?  He has a Maths Degree which I'm 
sure can be put to better use.

Learndirect, as a friend who was fed up with the paperwork involved in 
being a head

Does he have any DIY skills - there are many people out there who want 
simple jobs done at less than builders price - say charging between £10 
& £15 per hour
