Best Practice with Teaching Assistants Award (BPTAA) is a nationally recognised award that supports school improvement through effective leadership and management of teaching assistants.

The award celebrates the vital contribution teaching assistants make to learning, wellbeing, and pastoral support, while helping schools evaluate and strengthen how they deploy and support their staff.

By working towards the BPTAA, we aim to maximise pupil achievement and wellbeing, ensuring every member of our school community feels valued, safe, supported, and able to reach their full potential.
