Work to school transition and building evidence into education

The most active discussion on Talk Chemistry this month was started by Marc Dellerba from Yelverton: 

I am interested in teaching chemistry at secondary school level, after many years working in the NHS. I would be very interested to hear from people who have also gone into teaching after having a career elsewhere. How have other people found the transition? Any views on PGCE or teach direct? How have people found working in schools after private/public work? 

Thanks for using Education in Chemistry. You can view one Education in Chemistry article per month as a visitor. 

A photograph of a teacher standing in a white lab coat, speaking with a class of children in a laboratory, is superimposed on a colourful background. Text reads "Teach Chemistry means support for classroom and staff room".
