The Royal Sutton School

The Royal Sutton School is seeking an ambitious, enthusiastic and committed Second in English to join our dedicated and talented English team.

This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced teacher who is passionate about English and committed to ensuring that every student is supported to achieve their full potential. As Second in English, you will work closely with the Head of English to support the continued development of the department, contribute to high-quality teaching and learning, and help inspire a love of English across the school.

We are looking for someone who can demonstrate strong subject knowledge, excellent classroom practice and a genuine commitment to improving outcomes for students. You will be a positive role model for colleagues and students, with the confidence to contribute to departmental leadership and support the ongoing development of curriculum, teaching and learning.

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.
