Modern Apprentice

Nursery Apprentice – Holyrood (Swinton Location)

Location: Holyrood, Swinton

Salary: £8 per hour (40 hours per week)


About the Role

At Thrive, we always put our children first—but we also look after you as our Nursery Apprentice because your role as a hero in a child’s life deserves the same recognition!

As a Nursery Apprentice, you will:

  • Support in the care, development, and learning of young children in our thriving nursery setting while earning a Level 2/3 qualification in Early Years.
  • Assist senior staff in planning and facilitating age-appropriate activities.
  • Ensure the safety and well-being of the children while adhering to nursery guidelines.
  • Observe and engage with children’s behaviour and development.
  • Participate in training programs to strengthen your skills in childcare and early childhood education.

At Thrive, we’re committed to offering the best training experience. You’ll join an experienced team, deliver your work with passion, and play a vital role in shaping a brighter future for our children.

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.
