Read more about what an apprenticeship is
This qualification will give you the opportunity to develop and demonstrate your knowledge and competence in a range of skills whilst working in schools from primary through to further education.
The Advanced Level Apprenticeship is designed for learning support staff with a working role which requires competence in a specialist area and/or across a varied range of responsibilities. You will be working under the direction of a teacher who has overall responsibility for teaching and learning in the classroom.
You will contribute to planning, implementing and evaluating learning activities and will work alongside the teacher to support whole class activities, as well as working on your own with individual, or groups of, pupils.
If you want to work with learners age 14 and up and are looking for a practical course that will give you the skills and knowledge required for this demanding yet rewarding job, then look no further!
We have an extremely good reputation for our teaching apprenticeship courses, both for their high success rates and our comprehensive training opportunities.
You’ll learn from highly qualified teacher training professionals with years of experience behind them in a variety of settings. You will spend 4 days in the classroom experiencing and learning practical work skills. In addition, you
will spend 1 day learning away from the classroom engaging in a diverse range of learning activities, professional development and your coursework. What’s more, if you choose to gain higher qualifications in the future, we can also offer progression up to degree level and/or QTLS.
