What is the difference between the assistantship post and the primary one?
The assistantship post and primary school posts are relatively different, mainly due to the difference in age and subsequently in the contrasting level of English taught. However, both placements focus upon reinforcing the teaching of English as part of the national syllabus adhered to by full-time teachers. This is not simply about giving grammatical and oral support, but also drawing a cultural perspective on life in Great Britain.
