ABC/ASET CLASSROOM ASSISTANT LEVEL 2

This programme is designed for people who either are, or wish to become, a teaching assistant, and gain a recognised qualification or award.

The aims of the course are to provide comprehensive knowledge and skills appropriate to the conduct of a classroom support role, and to participate in a wide range of classroom support and activities.

This course provides two routes to an accredited qualification

1. An ASET Level 2 Teaching Assistant Certificate can be awarded for candidates completing the four MANDATORY units listed below plus THREE OPTIONAL units

2. An ABC Level 2 Certificate for Teaching Assistants can be awarded for completing the four MANDATORY units listed below, plus THREE OPTIONAL units, together with an in-school placement of at least 60 hours.

This dual approach to accreditation gives students who are not currently able to undertake an in-school placement an opportunity to complete an accredited award. Students who gain an ASET certificate may subsequently complete the ABC qualification once they are able toundertake an in-school placement.

The placement for the ABC qualification will require students to undertake a minimum of 60 hours practice in-school, under the guidance and supervision of a qualified teacher.

Once you enrol our student support team will contact you to determine which route you wish to undertake.
