Hi all
I'm looking for a career change to be a teaching assistant. My end goal is to do my PGCE but we can't afford for me to do it right now, so I'm keen to use my time proactively by getting experience in the classroom as a teaching assistant. I've got a meeting with a local primary school next week to discuss volunteering, and I've also spoken to Stonebridge this morning about starting their online course for the level 3 diploma.
Would really love to hear from any TAs and understand how / where you did your qualification? I understand from looking at available jobs that you have to have one now in order to get a job in the first place?
Thanks very much in advance!
