At The Open University in Wales we work closely with schools and colleges to provide opportunities to both students and staff.
We work closely with Welsh Government, the Education Workforce Council, trade unions and other organisations in Wales to ensure that Open University courses and qualifications are relevant for all levels of staff in the Welsh education sector.
We are the experts in flexible, part-time study and offer a huge choice of options. Whether working in a support role, teaching assistant, qualified teacher, or looking for leadership development, we have the both undergraduate and postgraduate qualifications and standalone modules to update knowledge and skills and support continuous professional development.
More information on our work with teaching assistants and support staff is available on our School staff webpage, including details on our Free Professional Development Workshops across Wales.
