Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:

Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?

It helps me a lot because I gain the knowledge I need to work with the kids in early years and to become a better TA for my school.
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)

Yes we have had a Christmas party for staff, we have sports activities to get involved in and make more events to go to for my apprenticeship.
