About the Book

This book is for teachers and teaching assistants (TAs) seeking to improve the ways that they work together to meet the needs of children in their classes. The number of teaching assistants (including learning support assistants who support children with special educational needs) has expanded greatly in recent years –– a trend which is set to continue, along with more formalised qualifications for TAs. However little thought has been given to the ways in which teachers and TAs can work best to support children's learning. This book gives an outline of the thinking behind the employment of additional adults in the classroom and will spell out some of the teamworking opportunities and problems that accompany their use. It will examine teamwork, collaboration and control as well as looking in detail at the role of the teacher and how this changes with the introduction of an additional adult. It also gives practical advice based on research on different models of team working for the classroom.

About the Author :
Gary Thomas took up the post of chair in education at Birmingham in 2005. Before university teaching, he worked as a teacher and as an educational psychologist. In higher education at the University of Leeds, at Oxford Brookes University, UWE and University College London his teaching and research have focused on inclusion, special education, and research methodology in education. He has received awards from the ESRC, the Nuffield Foundation, the Leverhulme Trust, the DfES, Barnardos, the Cadmean Trust, local authorities and a range of other organisations. Most of his funded research has been on inclusive or special education, though his Leverhulme Research Fellowship was awarded to examine the role of theory in education. He currently leads an ESRC thematic seminar competition in the Teaching and Learning Research Programme on the assessment of quality in educational research. He is the founding co-editor of a Taylor & Francis Carfax journal, the International Journal of Research and Method in Education and he is an editorial board member of the British Educational Research Journal.
