I have signed this petition and put it on Facebook. I really do not begin to understand what Michael Gove is trying to do. Teaching Assistants are the backbone in many schools,especially those with Special Needs pupils. They are invaluable and enable such schools to function at a high level.
Without them these schools could not possibly cope with all the needs of their pupils. They earn poor salaries but give every thing to the schools.
Please sign this petition for the sake of ALL your grandchildren.
