Child Care and Higher Level Teaching Assistant (HLTA) Diploma
NCC Home Learning's Child Care Diploma course
leads to a nationally-recognised Level 3 Award accredited by NCFE.
It has been designed to enable you to strengthen and develop your
knowledge and understanding of home-based childcare practice.
Course topics covered within the Child Care Diploma course include: The introduction to childcare practice, childcare and child development (0-16), the childcare practitioner and planning to meet children's individual needs.
The Child Care Diploma course will help you to improve your knowledge and skills, meet the requirements for basic training as part of childminder registration or application to be a registered childminder and undertake professional development.
The Higher Level Teaching Assistant (HLTA) Diploma home learning programme has been developed to enable those working, or hoping to work, in the role of ‘Higher Level teaching assistant’ (HLTA), to acquire and develop a level of understanding and skills that will help them to do this effectively.
The Higher Level Teaching Assistant Diploma
(HLTA) course study modules are based around the
professional standards for HLTA status which set out for teachers,
employers and parents the contribution to pupils’ learning that
HLTAs can be expected to make. Although this course does not
provide you with HLTA status, the course has been written alongside
the 33 TDA standards and will provide you with the underpinning
knowledge to progress in this field.
The standards cover three areas:
Professional attributes (standards 1-7)
These set out the attitudes, values and commitment expected of
HLTAs.
Professional knowledge and understanding (standards 8-16)
These set out the knowledge and skills needed by HLTAs to be able
to work effectively with teachers as part of the professional team
supporting learning.
Professional skills (standards 17-33)
These set out the expectations for planning, monitoring, managing
and evaluating learning within the framework of guidance and
supervision agreed with the assigned teacher and in accordance with
arrangements made by the headteacher of the school.
There is a mixture of question types requiring a range of
responses, including: descriptive answers or the completion of
practical activities. If you are currently working with children,
the activities may be used in support of your particular role.
However, if you are not actively working with children at present,
you will find that wherever possible the questions are structured
to provide you with alternative means of answering them. You may
find it profitable to approach the head of one of your local
schools, to explain what you are doing and to see whether there are
any opportunities for you to gain experience by helping out in the
school on a purely voluntary basis.
The starting salary for a Teaching Assistant ranges from around £11,000 to £16,000. A Higher Level Teaching Assistant could earn up to £18,000 a year. A fully-qualified FE Teacher can earn between £22,000 and £33,000 a year. - C&Q Qualification Guide 2009.
