International Professional Qualification Supporting Teaching & Learning – L2 Certificate (CACHE)

The traditional role of a Teaching Assistant has become increasingly varied, and today there are many different positions and jobs available in all kinds of educational settings. In our international community, we utilise teaching and learning support with a diverse school workforce and community.

This is why we’ve become an international awarding centre for CACHE qualifications at Level 2 and Level 3. With the many roles in our international schools that support student teaching and learning, we are on a mission to ensure that these staff are fully supported in their roles. We take the best of British and thoughtfully weave the international dimension throughout. The UK-recognised CACHE certification is embedded in this International Professional Qualification (iNPQ). Delivered by our experienced team of international school specialists, these programmes are purposefully designed to accurately reflect the needs of those who support teaching and learning in schools like yours and ours.

Who can apply?

Embedded in an international programme, the CACHE Level 2 Certificate in Supporting Teaching and Learning in Schools is aimed at delegates in a school placement or working in support roles within schools. It is suitable for those looking to work, or currently working, in roles such as lunchtime supervisor or teaching/learning assistants.

What are the entry requirements?

This qualification is suitable for delegates aged 16 and above. The course is delivered and assessed in English, so the ability to read and write in Standard English is essential.

How is this qualification structured?

There are 11 mandatory units in this qualification:

• Understand Schools and Colleges as Organisations
• Understand Children and Young People’s Development
• Safeguarding Children and Young People
• Equality, Diversity and Inclusion in a Learning Environment for Children and Young People
• Maintain Relationships with Children and Young People

• Support Positive Behaviour in a Learning Environment for Children and Young People
• Contribute to Teamwork in a Learning Environment

• Learner log or reflective diary
• Professional discussion
• Planned activities

• Scenario or case study

It is internally assessed by ILA facilitators, existing international school leaders, and quality assured by CACHE.

Do you need to be working to take this qualification?

Learners will need to be working, be on a practical placement or volunteering, for the duration of the course in a learning environment (primary school, secondary school, special school or college with students aged 5+) as they need to show competence in both skills and knowledge. We are unable to provide workplace opportunities, and these must be secured by the delegates themselves.

How long will it take to complete this qualification?

The certificate can usually be completed in 12 months (180 guided learning hours) although some delegates are able to complete in shorter time frames to fit around academic year ends.

What qualifications can you progress to?

Learners can progress onto the iNPQSTL Programme - Level 3 Certificate in Supporting Teaching and Learning in Schools.
