Excellent communication and enthusiasm will be key in supporting all pupils to progress, achieve and overcome any barriers to learning. You will support in all areas of the curriculum including literacy, numeracy and ICT within the classroom.
You will also accompany teaching staff and pupils on trips and other out of school activities.
You will also act as a role model for pupils and be a positive influence on their behaviour and performance at school.
So, it’s important that you demonstrate maturity and excellence in all you do. It will also be important to promote the ethos of the school at every opportunity.
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.

About The Talentum Learning Trust
The Talentum Learning Trust was formed in April 2016. Three schools, previously in a Hard Federation, converted to academy status within the Multi-Academy Trust. The schools, Churnet View Middle School, Leek High School and Westwood College had a history of collaboration and working together which was formalised through the hard federation in 2012. A natural development was to convert to a MAT and further extend the formality of the relationship.
