What qualifications do you need to be a teaching assistant?
At present no formal qualifications are required although most Local Education Authorities (LEAs) will ask new teaching assistants to undergo some form of induction training. National Vocational Qualifications (NVQs) at Levels 2 and 3 for teaching assistants based on the National Occupational Standard are also offered by some schools, LEAs and colleges. Teaching assistants in England are also able to progress in their careers by working through to Higher Level Teaching Assistant (HLTA) status – a set of national professional standards. Experienced assistants, who have achieved HLTA status may also lead lessons under the supervision of a qualified teacher.
