More about this apprenticeship
Building on your previous qualifications, or experience as a TA, LSA or classroom assistant, you’ll learn how to plan, prepare, deliver and evaluate learning and assessment activities and interventions to support individual, small group and whole class literacy learning. You'll not only advance your own career, but also play a vital role in shaping a brighter future for the children you support.
The programme covers a set of core competencies, such as overcoming barriers to learning, planning and assessment, communication, and professionalism as well as literacy-specific content.
There are also alternative specialisms if there's another area you'd like to develop your skills in. These include:
- SEND
- Social and Emotional Wellbeing
- PE, Health and Wellbeing
Whichever specialism you choose, you can look forward to a blended learning experience, which includes a healthy mix of online learning, progress reviews, live online masterclasses, and live online workshops.
