What jobs can I do working with children that don’t require a degree?

I’m interested in working with or advocating for children. Something like working in a school or one on one with special needs either as learning support or something like a social worker

Is there a list of jobs that are with children that don’t require a degree?

Thanks

Hello,

You can work as a teaching assistant in either mainstream or specialist schools where you support students academically and behaviourally throughout their school day. This only requires GCSEs and level 3 qualifications and (sometimes) they offer an additional short online course for specialist schools to work with vulnerable kids.
