My Journey to PCET

Sitting here in University after returning to education after several years in the world of business and sport. Having recently retired through injury from playing professional and semi professional rugby for the last ten years, I have time to reflect on my career and life after playing sport!!!!

Until April I was quite content in my role as a recruitment consultant, taking home a good salary and playing a high level of rugby every Saturday until the last game of the season which was insidently my 30th birthday I reptured my achilles tendon for the second time. Folowing this was an operation, 3 weeks in a cast and 16 weeks in a boot. During this time I had 12 weeks off work and really evaluated what I really wanted to do with my life. I have always had an ambition to teach and wanted to use the skills and knowledge I gain in University and a chance to inspire.

After some research I found the PCET and  it was everything I wanted to achieve and after an in depth conversation with my suppotive wife I decieded to take the plunge and return to university.

So exciting times ahead with a career change and ambition hopefully achieved and a new little addition to the family coming along in March!
