Have you thought about working as a learning support tutor in a school or Further Education college?
Or are you working as an LSA and wish to further develop your skills?
Then this course is for you!
The course will cover an introduction to values and principles which underpin learning support practice. You will become aware of the roles, responsibilities and boundaries of the learning support practitioner.
You will also have the opportunity to be introduced to some of the strategies to meet individual learning needs through the use of learning resources and effective communication with learners.
Please be prepared to provide your residency documents such as a passport, EU citizen ID card, UK Birth Certificate or Biometric Card. If you have been in the UK for less than 3 years or have entered the UK with a visa you will need to provide evidence that you are eligible to study in the UK - your visa, your biometric card that covers the duration of your course or any relevant home office documents to support your residency should all be provided. If you’re an EU, EEA or Swiss citizen we will need to see evidence of 'Pre-Settled' or 'Settled-status' documents. Also for funding purposes we would need to see evidence of payslips if working (within the last 3 months). If you are receiving benefits (e.g JSA, ESA, Universal Credit (UC), Housing benefits etc. please provide evidence of this).
You can progress onto further studies or use the skills learnt to improve in your current or new job role.
