How to be an outstanding primary teaching assistant

Teaching assistants are increasingly required to work with small groups of children in order to raise their academic achievement, develop their social, emotional development and encourage a better understanding of the world around them.

This requires TA's to have certain skills and strategies in their 'toolbox' that will allow them to support children throughout their school career, whatever their ability or need.

This easy- to-use book includes creative advice to how to best assist both the teacher within the classroom and the children they teach, including those with special educational needs, English as an additional language, or behavioural difficulties.
