[senco-forum] cover for TAs/LSAs?

Hi Helen

I have asked if cover supervisors could cover absent TAs to no avail.  They
are generally kept busy covering teaching staff and other departments use
them for lesson prep or regular support.  So generally absent TA = no
support.

Subject: [senco-forum] cover for TAs/LSAs?

Hi all,
I've been reading all the posts about TA hours with
great interest and glad to see am not the only one
trying to juggle hours! I wondered how other people
managed TA/LSA absence when they're off sick, do you
try and cover? I've recently been trying to juggle TAs
around to cover for absences, especially for the
statemented pupils, but with no extra money available
am finding it impossible. The trouble is teachers
expect their TA to be covered and moan if they aren't!
How do other people manage this problem?
Helen
