Thrive Recruitment Group is looking for qualified Secondary Teachers across all subjects to provide flexible supply cover in schools throughout Torquay.
You choose your availability. We help connect you with schools that need reliable teachers to keep learning moving when permanent members of staff are absent.

Work will generally be provided for you, so your focus will be on delivering the lesson, engaging pupils and maintaining a productive classroom environment.
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.
