We're downsizing to a one teacher school with a half time teacher as support because of the level of ASN pupils. I'm going to be working with all ages of pupils from a child in P1 with global developmental delay to a child in P7 with severe dyslexia. 2 pupils are considered to need 1-1 as well as others with IEPS - and I'm it along with a classroom assistant who has 8hours and isn't supposed to do ASN work - but will.

let us know how it goes!

I'll be staying in Reception really pleased about as i've only been in this job for 18 months so this next year will hopefully secure my knowledge of the foundation stage curricullum and by the end of that i'll have my NVQ3 and peadiatrics first aid which im due to take.


love kerryl x

The HT decides so we wont know for ages as still don't know where the children are going(we have two classes for most year groups) and then I don't know whether I will keep the same pupils with SEN or get new ones. I think it will be KS2 though and I am keeping some PPA and am getting paid HLTA rates next year(should be this 1/2 term too )
I will probably know before next year.

Have been told today, I am working in Y6 numeracy 1 lesson a day. The rest of my time is to be sorted 'as we go along' but will involve a bucket load of behaviour and inclusion work, just what I enjoy!! Not exactly sure what other TA's are doing only that they are doing less cover supervision, haven't had a chance to chat with the others.

Found out Yr 3,4 & 5.

We all found out today, via flyers in our pigeonholes hmmmmm....would have been nice to have it run by us first......after 7 years in Y3 am finally moving.....to Y2 to support one of DHs.

Good for you Rose Hope you enjoy your time in your new class with DH!!

Yes Rose I did. Hope Nice Teacher! LoL

I still don't know. The teachers have been told and some of them have let it slip to the TA's, majority of KS2 teachers are moving around and some have said that they would like to keep their TA's but HT doesn't like to hear that. Since being at my school I have been in yr 3/4 and 4/5 and would quite like to move to 5/6 so just have to wait and see.

I am guessing we won't know for another couple of weeks yet though!

Well I had both my interviews and got offered both jobs so was in the very enviable position of being able to choose!
1 job was at a specialist hospital in a large city doing shifts and night duties the other was at the local community hospital doing fixed hours with the possibility if a school hours contract with no nights and 1 weekend a month.
I went for the local one as I HATE commuting and can save a shed load on fuel costs and childcare costs but not driving and not sitting in traffic for an hour each morning and evening. So I'll not be TAing anymore and will be Radiographer again.
Very happy it's all turned out well...just have to find a decent childminder now

well done on the new job Colouful Lady

Yay! Good news, Colourful Lady! Good luck with it all!
