What does good employment support look like?Good support to getting into employment for me looks like help with adequate levels of education for those who have been out of the academia for many years.
As a mother of 2 young children and working part time my focus has shifted into raising the next citizen of this country. So my personal further educational journey has come to a stop.
I would like the Government to support and encourage older mums like me to go back into education in order to achieve better work prospects.
Having basic Maths and English skills is not enough.
It seems education is only for the young and once you become a parent you should be in full time employment at this stage.
If the government are demanding mothers to work more hours there will be no room for growth or development educationally.
