The Governors of this successful, happy school wish to appoint a skilled and enthusiastic Teaching Assistant to work in our ASD Provision. Our specialist classrooms, within the mainstream school, support primary aged children from across Sunderland Local Authority, who have a Special Education Needs Statement for Autism (ASD).
All children in ‘The Base’ have access to quality, specialist small group provision with a high adult to child ratio. They also have opportunities to work alongside mainstream children on a daily basis where appropriate. The roles will involve working within the provision, as well as supporting individual children in accessing mainstream lessons.
We are looking for:
* Excellent practitioners with high expectations for all children.
* Ability to support the delivery of all aspects of teaching and learning.
* Very secure understanding of ASD behaviours and ways to successfully manage these.
* Ability to plan for group work with teacher support and good literacy and numeracy skills.
* Effective communicators, who are willing to work in collaboration with colleagues.
* Willingness to participate fully in whole school life.
Prospective candidates are warmly invited to visit the school by appointment. Application packs are available from the school website (www.usworthcolliery.co.uk) and should be returned to Alison Forster (Headteacher) at the school no later than 9am Thursday 15th May 2025.
If you have the ability to inspire and challenge our children to achieve their full potential we would welcome your application.
