Teaching assistants are uniquely placed to support children’s involvement with learning through the curriculum. This book explores those issues that are central to that process. Specifically it examines:
- strategies for supporting learning and assessment in English, maths and science
- inclusive and imaginative practices in all areas of learning
- home and community contexts for learning
- working practices which support professional development.
This book is written primarily for learning support staff, their teaching colleagues and those responsible for professional development and training.
