having 2 A* GCSEs is quite different to a BTEC thats supposedly equivalent. theyre not worth the same whatever your teachers tell you (hence why the govt is getting rid of them).

mehh, thought i hated my teacher enough...ahwell dont have him&her next year...roll on history and french..joy ^_^

It looks like a fun job...
get the higher groups - have a laugh with them about a sport...
get the lower groups - have a laugh at there expense

I've always wanted to be a P.E teacher if my career as a Police Officer failed. The steps I would take is a level 3 course in Sports Science and then Uni.

I would love to be in the police force, i think i would enjoy the authority of the job, would especially like kicking a door in and shouting 'freeze!...police'

Unfortunately you don't "kick a door in". The Police use an enforcer which is a battering ram to break down doors and access houses etc. and in most forces, you need to be part of a specialist team, such as an Armed Response Unit. Merseyside Police have the Matrix Team.

Off Topic but I would hate to be a police officer, let alone in Merseyside. I hate being a steward and that gives me enough stick every Saturday :/

Ok, there are loads of differents ways that allow you to get into teaching. Firstly, you can follow the most common route, you can do your GCSE's, then do your A Level's in your specialist subject and subjects related to it, then you can do your degree or your higher level equivalent, then from there you can do a PGCE (Post Graduate Certificate of Education). It basically is a course you do over a year, two placements in two schools, usually different schools, one bad one and usually an OK/nicer one.

You can also go in via the GTP (Graduate Teachers Programme).
