ABSTRACT
This book is the second of a pair written to support the acquisition of the Higher Level Teaching Assistant (HLTA) standards (https://www.hlta.gov.uk" xmlns:xlink="https://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">www.hlta.gov.uk). The introduction of HLTAs is part of the reform of the school workforce set out in a National Agreement on raising standards and tackling teachers' workload made in January 2003 (DfES 2003a). The books cover the generic issues which underpin all that you do as an HLTA, whether specialising in a particular subject or in special educational needs (SEN), at any Key Stage.
