Psychology Graduate
£85 - £101 per day
September 2026 to July 2027
Location - SEN school, Ward of Edgbaston
1:1 and small group support – Autism
The Role
Provide 1:1 and small-group support for pupils with Autism across the school day. You will help students follow routines, access learning, build confidence, develop communication, and engage more positively in the classroom while working closely with teaching staff and wider professionals.
The Candidate
You are calm, observant, and able to build trust through consistency and clear communication. You want practical school-based experience, you can stay patient in a specialist setting, and you are interested in how focused support helps pupils with Autism feel more secure and make progress.
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.
