APPRENTICE - EARLY YEARS PRACTITIONER LEVEL 2

Rate of Pay: The current National Minimum Wage for an apprentice is £8.00 an hour. This rate applies to apprentices under 19 and those aged 19 or over who are in their first year. Apprentices must be paid at least the minimum wage rate for their age if they are aged 19 or over AFTER completing their first year. Apprentices are paid for their normal working hours and training completed as part of their apprenticeship.

We are seeking to appoint an enthusiastic and dedicated Level 2 Early Years Practitioner Apprentice with effect from January 2027 or earlier if possible for 35 hours per week plus five Inset Days. The post is term time only and for a fixed term contract of 15 months.

The successful candidate will support children in our Nursery and Reception classes (aged 2–4 years), helping to create a nurturing, stimulating and engaging learning environment. This is an exciting opportunity to begin a career in education while gaining a nationally recognised qualification. It is essential that you have excellent English and Mathematics skills and a real passion for wanting all children to achieve their very best.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

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.
