Basic Picture of an Educational Assistant

The EA is responsible to show maximum flexibility and adaptability by 'floating' to different classrooms as assigned by the administrative staff. You need to be able to deal with frequent changes, delays and unexpected events. You are required to communicate effectively with lead and assistant teachers to coordinate daily curriculum activities and classroom management techniques. The EA must be able to assist children, individually or in groups, with activities, toileting and / or diapering as well as all other health and safety components of a classroom.
