Travellers' Achievement Service (TAS)
The Travellers Achievement Service (TAS), as part of Ealing
local authority, advises and supports schools and other agencies
concerned with the inclusion of the Traveller community in all
levels of education within the borough. The service develops access
to education and raises standards of achievement against targets
set in Education Development Plans. Strategies and resources to
assist Traveller access to the National Curriculum are developed in
a context of equal opportunity and principles of anti-racism and
inter-cultural education are considered.
Some of the services they provide are:
- community liaison and family support
- development of members of the Traveller community to work in schools as deliverers of education services, and in other agencies as appropriate
- pupil counselling and profiling as part of pastoral care programme
- allocation of peripatetic teacher/assistant time on an agreed basis
- management of the Traveller Education Centre as an educational access point for Traveller families.
