Primary Supply Teacher - Braintree
Looking for a teaching role that gives you more say over your working week?
We're currently looking for a flexible and enthusiastic Primary Supply Teacher to support local primary schools across Braintree on an ASAP basis.
Working as a Primary Supply Teacher offers the opportunity to remain in the classroom without being tied to the long-term commitments of a permanent role. You can experience different schools, meet new teaching teams and work across a range of year groups while choosing availability that works around your lifestyle.
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.
