About us
MITA was developed at UCL and has now been utilsed by over 900 schools, the Research Schools Network and developed with the Education Endowment Foundation (EEF),
Maximising TAs is now held by Sally Franklin and Matthew Parker, and delivered as consultancy.
MITA was developed as a Knowledge Exchange programme at UCL Institute of Education, to explore the findings of the DISS materials and to implement a programme of workforce review and development with school leaders. The team was led by Rob Webster who created and developed the MITA Direct Leadership Programme, Paula Bosanquet, creator of the MPTA training programme for Teaching Assistants, with Sally Franklin and Matthew Parker.
Our most recent publication, Maximising the Impact of Teaching Assistants in Primary Schools - A Practical guide for School Leaders was published in 2021 and is available here.
