Yeah, I think they'd look really highly on a former police officer as a teacher as they'd assume you'd be able to take control of a bunch of rowdy kids quite well
Pay isn't too bad really either to be honest and I'd say it's a pretty secure job and always going to be in demand somewhere.

And you get big summer hols

I'd like to go down the teacher route eventually, I think

My dearest mother is a teacher and she gets like 13 weeks off a year! Nice to have someone to cook me meals when i go home at lunch from work

I suspect that teaching may be a case of out of frying pan into fire.May be good holidays but the stress factors are probably worse than plodding.
Id be inclined to check very carefully whether the grass is any greener before jumping.All jobs these days are high stress and expect more than they are entitled to receive from their workers.
Have you considered talking to your doctor or a counsellor about the problem?It could be something to do with the way you are relating to your workplace rather than the job itself,and could be sortable without drastic like changes.Just a thought----?

Shell, not sure what aspects of the Police work you especially like, but have you tought about something like private detective work? You get to sit around drinking coffee in stake outs, and use lots of cool gadgets...

I'm sure the advanced driving skills would come in handy for driving jobs too, maybe something where you ferry rich celebrities around and have to give the paparazzi the slip? You might even get to meet some hollywood hunks

Also MI5/6 may be looking for someone with a copper's nose for trouble...

Hope you find something good anyway!

MI5/6 is a good call, although you would have to move to london
