How you'll make a difference
Working within a small cluster team, you will be the main point of contact for parents and carers of children and young adults in relation to their Education Health and Care (EHC) Plan or EHC needs assessment, making sure they are aware of any progress and developments. The Education, Learning and Skills department provide high quality, coordinated child, young person and family-centred services which respond to needs and adopt a preventative and early help approach. You will play a crucial role in ensuring the smooth running of the team.
What you will be doing

- You will prepare your cases for multiagency decision-making panels and present them when required.
- Working alongside colleagues in further education settings and relevant professionals, you will develop strong relationships and provide them with a key point of contact. This will include the identification of SEND, statutory compliance, school information and outcomes.
- You may be asked to chair multi-agency meetings attended by senior education colleagues, SENCOs, educational psychologists and other health professionals.
- You will organise effective work plans to meet productivity targets of the team and ensure that quality assurance processes are followed.
- It will be key for you to have knowledge and understanding of legislation relating to children and young people with special educational needs and their families.
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.
