What others are saying
“I would definitely recommend the course to others! This course was amazing, I’ve learned so much and become so much more confident in the subject area. It fitted perfectly around school drop off and pick up times which has also been great as a mum.”
Daisy Coppinger
Buckinghamshire College Group
Teaching Assistant Course
“I really enjoyed completing this Teaching Assistant course, which has helped me develop my knowledge, confidence and understanding of how to support children with different needs and backgrounds. My tutor was incredibly supportive and encouraging, making every lesson interesting and interactive. I’m so grateful for everything I’ve learnt and the opportunity I’ve been given!” (Google Review: 5 Stars Oct 2026)
Elena Mazilu
Teaching Assistant Course
Barnet Southgate College
“My college tutor Santa was amazing – I’d been to sixth form & college but had never received support like this – help with mock interview, updating CV and developing transferable skills. This led me to getting a job at my first interview at a local SEND school. I would definitely recommend this course to others – you genuinely get the support you need to get back into work and my experience proves it!”
Louisa Coltman
Teaching Assistant Course – Barnet Southgate College
“I decided to start the apprenticeship as I wanted to gain a qualification that would directly benefit my current role and my future career. I am always trying to find better ways of working, for myself and the teams that I manage, and this course will help to put some structure around that process, therefore making it more efficient.”
Jenny Conroy
Team Leader
Level 4 Improvement Practitioner Apprenticeship – Altro
“I really enjoyed this course – highly recommend it – very intense but fun and well worth it. The people are very helpful and supportive too.”
Charlene Pepper
Teaching Assistant Course – Milton Keynes College
“It’s been a great programme – I’ve learned so much! It has opened my eyes to things I’ve been able to bring into a new role following my recent promotion. I say to everyone – jump onto this programme and try it!”
