Almost every Teaching Assistant will need to support students with special educational needs, emotional vulnerabilities or other additional needs.
Here at Manor Green School, a regional hub for excellence supporting pupils aged 4-19 with multiple and complex learning difficulties, we offer apprenticeship training to ensure that all Teaching Assistants can gain a nationally accredited qualification that equips them to work in both the mainstream or special educational needs sector.
We offer the Level 3 Teaching Assistant apprenticeship standard, allowing you to ‘earn while you learn’.
Duration: as a full-time apprentice you will spend 12 - 18 months working towards the apprenticeship standard, with a minimum of 20% off-the-job training.
Whether you are working for Manor Green School or being trained by us for another employer, we guarantee you a level of support and expertise that will help you unlock your potential, enabling you to feel confident in the classroom and your career progression.
End-point Assessment (EPA)
The EPA has two elements, both carried out by an independent external assessor.
A practical observation (approximately 2 hours) with oral questions and answers (approximately 15 minutes).
This will be planned to reflect the apprentice’s typical working conditions, and allow the apprentice to demonstrate all aspects of the standard. Where required, it will be planned to give the apprentice the opportunity to move from one area of the organisation to another in order to show how they apply the KSBs in a work environment to
achieve genuine and demanding work objectives. This might, for example, include a lesson environment, 1 to 1 pupil support, joining in a teacher review of behaviour and/or meeting with parents.
A professional discussion supported by a portfolio of evidence (approximately 1 ½ hours).
This will be a structured discussion following the practical observation, that will aim to establish the apprentice’s understanding and application of the KSBs. The portfolio does not form part of the assessment or final grade but is used by the assessor to lead the discussion and by the apprentice to evidence and support their responses to questions.
