Apprenticeship Overview
Our Apprenticeship programmes will give you vital hands-on experience, learning from real life situations, with the guidance of industry professionals. You’ll gain the skills and confidence needed to excel in your chosen career.
A Supporting Teaching & Learning Apprenticeship is a reliable way to take your initial step in to the schools and childcare sectors. Training to be a Teaching Assistant or Learning Support Assistant will give you first-hand insight into the workings of the classroom.

Shadowing a teacher, you’ll be involved in all aspects of classroom life, from play activities, to reading groups and class trips.
