Hi busy teachers and TAs!
Can anybody outline how someone becomes a classroom assistant? There are courses online, some cheaper than others, some saying they're recognised, some not and I can't tell what is worth doing. Is there one that's very widely recognised?
If it's useful this is for a friend of mine who has about 10-15 years of experience as a nursery/creche worker and before that worked in paediatric mental health (about 20 years ago) but isn't a qualified nurse. She's abroad and stuck in her job and enjoys early years kids, so thought of being a TA, particularly in Foundation stages, but is having trouble finding out what she needs (and wants it to be from the U.K. as she's British and would apply to international schools where there's a lot of competition).
Any pointers?
