Teaching Assistant potentials are in limited supply in the United Kingdom. Nonetheless, teaching assistant positions are the most in-demand in the education industry, with a total of 40,965 job advertisements available between June and September 2020, about double the amount of teacher positions. One of the primary causes of this scarcity is a scarcity of trained experts. In order to address the shortage, we are glad to promote the professional development of prospective learners and are pleased to provide a one-of-a-kind Key Stage 1 and 2 Teaching Assistant course.

This course will aid you in taking the initial step toward obtaining teaching assistant employment. It focuses on the professional growth of a TA as well as the principles of working with a school. You will learn how to use ICT, literacy, and numeracy development methods, as well as how to communicate successfully with pupils. You will also have a thorough understanding of the holistic approach of SEN programs to child development. The last module will present you with TA opportunities in the United Kingdom.

A big poll conducted earlier in 2022 discovered that, of all sorts of educational professionals, classroom support personnel were the most difficult to obtain in the previous year, with 45% of employers reporting difficulty recruiting teaching assistants. So, if you want to join this industry, now is the time. Enrol now and reap the benefits of this course later in your career.

FAQs

Study method describes the format in which the course will be delivered. At Reed Courses, courses are delivered in a number of ways, including online courses, where the course content can be accessed online remotely, and classroom courses, where courses are delivered in person at a classroom venue.

CPD stands for Continuing Professional Development. If you work in certain professions or for certain companies, your employer may require you to complete a number of CPD hours or points, per year. You can find a range of CPD courses on Reed Courses, many of which can be completed online.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
