TA – Making Learning Happen

At KAA we passionately believe that all staff should be valued, developed, and challenged. Teaching Assistants are often hugely talented and skilled in their role of supporting deep learning in the classroom and beyond, and yet, they are often overlooked when planning continuous professional development.

This is a learning module designed for Teaching Assistants or other support staff who work in classes with groups or individuals or who teach intervention groups outside the classroom.

It is suitable for those who are newly appointed and those who have been in role for a while and wish to refresh their practise.

Whilst working through the module we will explore the following and more.

• Explore how learning happens by examining the Learning Cycle.
• Reflect on our strengths and areas for development.
• Share good practice, strategies and learning tools to promote deeper learning as TAs.
