A bit about us:
St John's Catholic Primary School is a welcoming, vibrant and inclusive school community where every individual is valued and encouraged to flourish. Guided by Gospel values and Catholic Social Teaching, we are committed to providing an environment where children and adults alike are treated with dignity, kindness and respect.
The children at St John’s love lunchtimes and the addition of OPAL play last year has been a huge success. We are keen to hear from individuals who are patient, calm, organised and adaptable to join our existing lunchtime play team. A positive outlook and a sense of humour is essential as well as being able to use your own initiative.
All about the role:
Duties will include supervision of pupils in the school grounds all year round during OPAL play, and may include cover in the school lunch hall. Full training will be provided.
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.
