Support Staff Courses
This year, the Inspire Professional Learning Programme has expanded to provide a more bespoke and detailed offering for Teaching Assistants and Support Staff. These courses are great for those who are new to their roles and are looking for new ways they can be effective and strengthen their practice. We have also added a couple of courses to support TAs who work with children with complex need, to equip them with specialist knowledge and skills to ensure all children have valuable learning experiences.
Empowering Learners as a New Teaching Assistant
This 5-session programme is designed to enable teaching assistants to support children’s learning more confidently at all stages of their learning journey. These virtual sessions will focus on fostering independence in children rather than creating a sense of ‘learned helplessness’ for pupils who work in guided group. During the sessions, staff will be supported to evaluate their own practice and identify priorities for themselves and the children they work with, taking ownership of their development and identifying ways in which they can continue to progress.
