Trainee Teaching Assistant helping the teacher prepare and deliver lessons, support pupils in their learning and looking after the interests of all pupils within the school.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?

I am really enjoying learning on the job and having the opportunity to research and fulfil assessments on my own way.

5/5
I have completed a lot of research during my apprenticeship which I have found very interesting, I have attended training and webinar and completed first aid training too.
Structure and Support
How well organised/structured is your programme?
5/5
It took me a few weeks to get the hang of it, and learn the system and the way we record information but now I find it really easy and my tutor is a great support.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
5/5
My employer is fantastic, the lady who is my contact is always available when I need her.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
5/5
I have lots of support from everyone at work including the teacher I am assigned to and the admin and SLT team. I have been provided with lots of additional training to support me and it is totally flexible which is perfect.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
5/5
I am learning something new everyday and really enjoying what I have covered so far. The safety of children is of the upmost importance so I like to cover as much safeguarding training as possible.
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
5/5
Not at the moment but we will be having a summer fete etc coming up in warmer months which I would like to get involved in and I will be helping plan a class school trip.
Recommendations & Advice
Would you recommend Inspire ATA Ltd. to a friend?
Yes
Why?
I like the flexible approach to learning and the balance I can have Pershing a qualification and career while also still having time to be a mum. I have a great work, life and learning balance.
What tips or advice would you give to others applying to Inspire ATA Ltd.?
There was quite a lot of paperwork at first which seemed daunting, call on your contact if you need assistance with anything. Be patient as it also took a few weeks to hear from my tutor.
