    Abstract

    The paper explored the subject positionings of the female, LSA, that is the learning support assistant in post compulsory education, as they practice their art and craft in the everyday. It explored the ways in which the uptake of multiple subject positionings, including that of LSA has facilitated transformations and reinventions. The author is particularly interested in their experiences of what it is like to work in higher and further education, that is currently beset by a neoliberal agenda, which promotes an aggressive marketisation of education.
