Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
5/5
Teaching Assistant Apprenticeship - Providing learning support for children and supporting the class teacher with day-to-day jobs.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
5/5
I enjoy my programme as this is something that I have always wanted to do and the support I receive from Inspire is beyond helpful as they will always go the extra mile to provide any support you may need.
Skills Development
Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
5/5
I have built my communication skills during my apprenticeship which allows me to communicate with colleagues to best support the children.
Structure and Support
How well organised/structured is your programme?
5/5
My programme is very organised as all of my work is organised into one portfolio which divides each topic I complete into a separate folder, ensuring that nothing is lost.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
5/5
I have a tutor who I know I can go to with any concerns I may have. I also have a line manager who I can also turn to whenever I may need and I know that she will support me.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
5/5
As the workload can sometimes be confusing and stressful, our training providers understand this and provide support with the work as well as our wellbeing.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
5/5
I have a better understanding of how to support correctly in my role through the support I receive as they will always be there to help with any questions I may have about my role in order for me to do my job to the best of my ability.
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
My workplace organises work socials at the end of each term to give their staff the chance to unwind and get to know each other outside the workplace. It is a nice opportunity to share your thoughts and get support from colleagues.
