About the Role
Do you believe every young person deserves the chance to thrive? Are you driven by creativity, resilience, and a passion for personalised education?
We’re seeking an enthusiastic and dedicated SEN Teacher to join our expanding team and shape exceptional learning experiences for pupils with additional and complex needs.
This is more than a teaching role—it’s a chance to unlock potential, build confidence, and make a real difference.
Key Responsibilities
In this role, you’ll:
- Deliver creative, engaging, highly personalised learning tailored to individual needs.
- Work with small classes and a multidisciplinary team to elevate academic, social, and emotional outcomes.
- Monitor, assess, and report on pupil progress via IEPs and IBPs.
- Adapt teaching methods to support a wide range of SEN needs.
- Foster safe, nurturing environments where pupils gain confidence and independence.
- Collaborate with families, professionals, and support staff.
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.
