EYFS and Key Stage 1 & 2 Teaching Assistant

EYFS and Key Stage 1 & 2 Teaching Assistant
I thoroughly enjoyed this course as it gave me an insight of what it is like to work in KS1 and KS2. As I work with children in Early Years, this course has given me more knowledge on how I can develop my work further in Early Years as well as gaining knowledge of working with older children in schools. With the help of this course, I hope I can put my knowledge into practice.
Thank you!!!
Written in good language
Great course, easy to understand without reading twice to get the idea. Great amount of materials added to learn from. However, I like to complete Tests after sections to make sure that I have understood the Chapter. There was no tests, just assignments. I’m not sure if that’s enough, hence 4 stars! Thank you!
