No formal qualifications are required to become a Teaching Assistant, although there will be opportunities to gain accreditation. All Teaching Assistant training will be offered free to successful applicants, and will be flexible to promote maximum engagement.

Hours to suit you

If you are a parent/carer with school-aged children this may work well in combining training and employment with hours that suit childcare. This could also be an opportunity for undergraduates/graduates wishing to further their real-life skills or who are interested in working in education or supportive roles with children and young people.

Life is an adventure

This is an amazing opportunity for those that have never ever considered a career in education. Whilst demanding, it is also incredibly rewarding. Is this something you have ever considered? Perhaps now is the time for a new adventure.

Testimonials

People JUST LIKE YOU

“I completed the Teaching Assistant training course in July  and started working as a supply teaching assistant in October. I’ve visited many different schools, and every experience has been unique and valuable. The CPD courses and day-to-day work have really helped build my confidence and knowledge. Everyone at Supply Plus is friendly, supportive, and makes you feel truly valued."

"I’m glad to be part of the Supply Plus team.

The TA course that I completed with Supply Plus was informative, well structured and delivered by exceptional trainers. Having had no experience in this setting, the course gave me a better understanding of expectation.


The areas we covered were of great value and I learnt a lot from it."

"I was really quite anxious and nervous attending the first session, but there was absolutely no need to be.


The supply plus team are all extremely friendly and helpful.


I looked forward to attending every session thereafter. "

"Since completing the course I very quickly got offered a role in a local primary school. First day was a little daunting, but I’ve now been with the same class for three days and i am getting into a good routine. You soon get to know the names of all the children! 


There is so much variety in this role, still lots to learn but I love it!”
