In short
The short answer
A shadow teacher supports one named child in the classroom rather than teaching the whole class. They help the child follow routines, access learning, communicate, participate and move safely through the school day under an agreed support plan.
How to decide
- Confirm the child’s specific classroom needs and goals.
- Agree duties, boundaries and communication with the school.
- Record safeguarding and authorised collection arrangements in writing.
Step by step
How this works
1Childcare and safeguarding
Childcare duties, specialist support, safeguarding and authorised collection arrangements are agreed in writing before support begins.
2The home assessment
An assessor reviews the person’s needs, home, routines and risks, then confirms the care plan, professionals and hours required.
