The following is a list of useful links to information and resources that will help you better understand the English education system and therefore more easily assimilate to the classroom environment in the UK.
Although you won’t be responsible for preparing and implementing the curriculum as a teaching assistant, the more familiar you are with it, the more able you will be to assist the teacher, facilitate the learning, and therefore the more valuable you will make yourself to schools.
