Continue to professionalise the role, improve access to training and development opportunities, and ensure these skills are reflected in salary.

Since the last report, NCFE supported the development of the new
Level 5 specialist teaching assistant apprenticeship standards which
have now been given approval. This is a significant milestone in
creating structured, recognised career progression for TAs. The new
apprenticeship has three specialist areas to choose from: SEND,
social and emotional wellbeing, and curriculum provision.

• The T Level in Education and Early Years is now established as one
of the best performing T Levels and a second generation of the
qualification will be delivered from September 2025. It offers a broad
and comprehensive insight into the role of education and childcare,
before providing the opportunity for students to specialise in either
early years or assisting teaching.
• However, we must develop a new system that allows schools to
prioritise and pay for the development of its existing staff as well,
possibly through devolved responsibilities and ringfenced funding.
This would improve job satisfaction, career development, and
learner outcomes.
• There is also risk of skilled teaching assistants being forced to move
into other sectors, such as retail, where the salary expectations
are higher. Increasing the base salary would ensure more teaching
assistants remain in the role as well as attract new, passionate
individuals into the sector.
