DonaldCrusader Posted October 23, 2018 Posted October 23, 2018 Well my old firm closed and I am working part time. I hope to find some teaching role that can fill in some of my free time. I have had a few opportunities to teach in schools previously though only as a guest. I do not need an income so an unpaid role would be okay. Teaching is under valued by many but it can be one of the hardest and most rewarding roles.

Most people on here are more on the technical side of educational IT than actual teaching - you might also want to try places like the TES forums for a wider range of potential answers. Saying that, the kind of thing you might be looking for is a coding club or similar - after school clubs that take on volunteers and send them in to schools to run clubs dealing with coding / robotics / electronics / etc. The Raspberry Pi community is also a good place to look to connect volunteers with schools.
mavhc Posted October 23, 2018 Posted October 23, 2018 I'd probably start by helping out with a code club if you don't have any contacts in schools, then volunteer to TA in CS lessons if you know how to code
