We’re looking for a patient and grounded SEN Teaching Assistant to support pupils with autism and complex communication needs in a specialist setting in Sunderland.

This is a school where relationships come first. The day is structured, predictable, and built around helping pupils feel safe, understood, and ready to learn.

Why this role stands out

Be part of a calm, purposeful environment where small wins are celebrated
Work within a team that truly understands SEND, no guesswork here
A school day built around routine, regulation, and connection
Opportunities to work closely with therapists and support teams
