In this episode, we discuss how teachers and education assistants (otherwise known as teacher aides or learning support officers) can work together to support students with disability. We explore the day-to-day role education assistants play in contributing to classroom achievements, and specifically look at the ways they add value to the NCCD team.

You’ll meet Leanne Hillman, a former teacher who’s at the helm of a pilot research project looking into how education assistants and teachers can forge a more effective partnership for student success. Experienced education assistant Rochelle Miller then shares what this partnership involves – from case management to the daily tasks required to engage students and meet their needs – while middle school teacher Tamara Chesson outlines the benefits education assistants bring to the classroom.
