This course is a great way to develop the knowledge and understanding of child and young person development.

You'll participate in a City and Guilds Accredited programme "Level 2 Award in Support Work in Schools". This will allow you to begin a career as a Teaching Assistant or Individual Needs Assistant in Primary, secondary and college education.
In addition to this fully funded course there is also a 1-2-1 employment support service available and job opportunities.
