This text provides the underpinning knowledge to support teaching assistants in all phases of schooling when undertaking study at an advanced level. It contains practical examples of TAs at work and useful references which give the reader an informed insight into the extended role of TAs. The book: actively engages the reader in activities, developing reflective practice while giving the theoretical background to school based work; gives insight and information about pupils' individual needs, curriculum based skills and the teaching skills which will enable the reader to support pupils' teachers and the curriculum more effectively; enables TAs to operate more independently, using their knowledge and initiative, whilst developing their practice in partnership with class teachers; and emphasizes that TAs are team members, supporting the school and being supported by the school.

"I was immediately impressed by this book's bright look and clear structure. It was certainly an interesting book to read whether you are working towards an qualification or not. It found myself looking at my own personal development and work and questioning why or how I do things." Learning Support, Summer Term 2006 Issue
