Supporting learning and progress

The deployment of TAs is the school leadership’s responsibility and this professional development course is intended for senior school leaders and headteachers who want to maximise the use and impact of this valuable resource, class teachers who want to make the best use of teaching assistants in their classes; and teaching assistants themselves who want to better the way they support student learning and progress.

Using Teaching Assistants to maximise impact on pupil outcomes

Hundreds of thousands of teaching assistants are employed throughout the UK. Yet, they are often deployed in such a way that their job becomes difficult to do. Frequently they are excluded from training and not prepared as well as they could be.

This course shows you how to maximise the impact of TAs. It gives insight into critical research explaining how TAs are used- and how they could be used better. It walks you through the steps you need to take to transform the working lives of your TAs, helping you to raise achievement and make better use of your existing staff in the process.
