- W1910368945 abstract "This research has studied the role and context of teaching assistants (TAs) in one authority, and inparticular in two primary schools.The purpose of the study was to find out how these assistants support the teaching and learning ofpupils in the classroom; to identify the factors which influence their effectiveness; and to identifystrategies which could enhance their work.The study began with a literature review of the historical perceptions of the role, effectiveness anddevelopment of teaching assistants.In order to gain further insight into the assistants' role and needs within the local authorityemploying the researcher, the study proceeded with a survey of primary schools within theauthority, the results of which were circulated to these schools. The results provided sufficientinformation to enable a rationale for professional development to be defined.The next stage was a close look at the work of TAs in two primary schools which differed in therationale for employing assistants. An ethnographical approach was used, including observationstrategies, some video work, semi-structured interviews and field notes. The results were analysedand categorised.A reflective diary recorded the changes taking place during the period of study. This, along with anupdated literature review enabled the findings of the research to be set in a wider national context.The key findings were:• that assistants support teaching and learning in a variety of ways, often operating concurrently,and which include many characteristics of qualified teachers;• their personal characteristics, opportunities for continuous professional development, and theschool climate are important factors in their effectiveness, regardless of the nature of theiremployment; and• while external agencies need to recognise and support their work, the way in which they areemployed and deployed by the school is crucial." @default.
