This series is designed to enable Teaching Assistants to support the addressing of gaps in learning in reading, writing and maths which is so critical to helping children get back on track.

• The series consists of 10 sessions.
• The sessions will be delivered monthly via Zoom across the year
• Access to a bank of useful supporting resources will be available for each unit to allow personal learning to turn instantly into professional practice
• Practical and experiential gap tasks will be set and reviewed with the programme tutor and peers, creating a learning network.

Training Objectives:

• To enable TAs to effectively support learning in both English and Mathematics
• To enable TAs to effectively facilitate the learning of SEND pupils across the curriculum
• To understand how to use questioning and formative assessment strategies to identify gaps and to check that gaps are closing.
• To understand how SEND barriers to learning are manifested and strategies to use when working with SEND pupils to maximise their learning.

Training Outcomes:

• With the support of Teaching Assistants, pupils will become more
  proficient in English and Mathematics.
• Through effective support by Teaching Assistants, SEND pupils will be able to self-regulate better and increase their readiness for and focus on learning.
• Intervention sessions provided by Teaching Assistants will be
  sharply focused on addressing gaps in learning and will enable
  pupils to catch up with their peers.
• Intervention sessions for SEND pupils provided by Teaching Assistants will be effectively targeted at their barriers to learning so that the gaps in learning are closing.
• SEND pupils supported by Teaching Assistants will know more and remember more and achieve more independent working as a result of effectively facilitated learning.
• Monitoring by senior leaders will demonstrate both qualitative and
  quantitative improvements from baseline assessments.
