Support for Learning Support Assistants
Learning Support Assistants are an invaluable resource in our education settings. From dealing with and managing challenging behaviour, to working with specific needs and barriers to learning, the LSA can be the connecting bridge between the child and their learning.
To help celebrate National Learning Support Assistant's Day next Thursday 16 September, we're delighted to share with you new content on the Norfolk Schools website to support Learning Support Assistants. Support includes:
- Making Best Use of Teaching Assistants
- LSAs and Interventions
- LSA Training and Development
- Apprenticeships
- Signposting to useful information for LSA's.
