Overview

Are you interested in becoming a teaching assistant with the authority to teach a class and help children develop? Then this course is for you, with the option of learning from the comfort of your own home, at your own pace.

Starting salaries are above the minimum wage and range from £12,000 to £17,000 per annum.

Learn how to accommodate different learning styles whilst involving children in the play space creation.

Our course covers all of the core requirements to become a level 3 teaching assistant, covering the Disability Discrimination Act 1995, whilst also teaching you the psychical development stages of children.

Studying from home provides an affordable route to education which is far more cost effective than University education. As this is role related, it allows for instant recognition as a teaching assistant which will help with gaining employment.

Teaching assistants are highly respected and valued in the education sector, as there is a growing necessity of their use. With successful completion of this diploma, you will be able to work as a TA in a private or public school.

As a level 3 student, you will be provided with additional responsibility in comparison to a level 2 teaching assistant, which will be reflected in your pay grade.

FAQs

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.
