- ADHD
- Anxiety and other mental health needs
- Trauma and adverse childhood experiences (ACEs)

Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
The Role

- One-to-one tuition and mentoring
- SEND and SEMH interventions

- EOTAS (Education Otherwise Than At School) provision
- Alternative Provision support
- Confidence-building and learner engagement activities
Sessions are typically delivered in a learner’s home or within an appropriate community setting, enabling you to provide flexible, individualised support.
With a growing number of referrals expected from September 2026, we are keen to establish a reliable team of tutors and support staff across Herefordshire, including Hereford, Ross-on-Wye, Leominster, Ledbury, Bromyard, Kington, and surrounding areas. These opportunities are ongoing throughout the academic year.

- Previous experience in tutoring, mentoring, teaching, youth work, pastoral care or SEND support
