In January 2024 alone, reports were published about the SRA taking enforcement action against 3 firms and 4 individuals for failure to comply with the Money Laundering Regulations 2017. The fines issued for these non-compliances total over £570,000 plus costs. The absence of staff training, or requirement to complete additional training, was noted in a number of these cases. Many of the breaches resulting in enforcement action involved failures by the fee earners to conduct appropriate due diligence, adequately check the source of funds and/or wealth or recognise and report red flags. As highlighted by enforcement action being taken against individuals as well as firms, fee earners cannot hide behind their firm when AML failures occur and may be held personally accountable by the SRA for non-compliances with the MLR 2017.

Description A Teaching Assistant (TA) is an individual who assists the teachers in the accomplishment of the learning and leisure activities of the children. Teaching assistants work in close proximity with children in order to ensure that they carry out the classroom activities well. The responsibilities of a teaching assistant are many and may vary from school to school. However, they have to work according to the instructions of the teacher in charge and under her supervision. Even though their rank is lower than the teachers, their role is very important in a classroom. The job of a TA will include getting the classroom ready for students, observing the learning activities of the children, ensuring their security, supervising group tasks, supporting children with Special Education Needs (SEN) and so on. The goal of this course is to give a crystal-clear understanding of the roles and responsibilities of a higher-level teaching assistant. It includes all the do's and don'ts that the teaching assistant must be aware of. The course comprises the communicative strategies that a TA must use for building positive relationships with students.
