Training to become a Learning Support Assistant

Who becomes an LSA?

Teachers who want to specialise in inclusion and one-to-one work.
Career-changers moving into education from psychology, therapy, social work, or childcare.
Graduates with a degree in education, psychology, or a related discipline.
Parents who have supported their own child with learning needs and want to turn that experience into a career.

Honest expectations

Compensation is competitive with UAE market rates for trained LSA professionals. Specific rates are discussed during the application process.
Most placements are full school days during term time.
It's demanding work. Children are unpredictable, parents are worried, schools are pressured. You need resilience as much as skill.

What our team says

From LSAs who train and work with Incluzun.

“Ms. Harmeet is a true taskmaster, result-oriented Inclusion professional and she knows her work very well. She possesses some truly exceptional leadership qualities that make her a true leader. The LSA/Shadow teachers forum launched and spearheaded by Incluzun Champions is a place where you get encouragement, support, and motivation.”

UAE school placement

“Ms. Catherine is one of the main reasons why our job feels like less of a job. Her passion and dedication make a real difference to our students. She introduced the intervention programmes we use to help our students overcome barriers to learning — including Toe by Toe, Primary Movements, and One Step at a Time.”

“Miss Kaur has a way of making any task ahead of you feel like a walk in the park. Her commitment to continuous training and learning for staff development is unmatched. Working through the Incluzun programme, I gained practical insights into the resources and tools that actually work in the classroom.”

Common questions

Do I need a specific qualification to start?

You need a relevant background — a degree in education, psychology, or a related field, or equivalent professional experience. Our Skills Enhancement programme builds on that foundation.

What's the difference between Incluzun and applying to a school directly?

Schools hire LSAs for a specific role. Incluzun matches you to the children who suit you best, and supports you throughout. You work for us; we invest in your development.

Do you support visa sponsorship?

Visa sponsorship availability depends on your situation and the engagement type. Please raise this during your application conversation and we will give you an honest answer.

How is pay structured?

Pay is discussed during the application process. Rates are competitive with UAE market standards for trained LSA professionals and reflect your experience and hours.

Can I work part-time?

Part-time placements are available depending on the needs of the families and schools we serve. Let us know your availability and we will match accordingly.

What happens in school holidays?

Most placements follow the school calendar. Some families request support during holidays. We discuss arrangements for holiday periods on a case-by-case basis during onboarding.

Can I progress into other roles?

Many of our experienced LSAs have moved into senior support roles, SENCO responsibilities, or educational consulting. We actively support career progression.
