SEND LSA (Complex Needs) | Epping

Are you a graduate with experience supporting children with SEND and a passion for helping pupils with complex needs?

A welcoming and supportive school in Epping is seeking to appoint a dedicated SEND LSA (Complex Needs) to join their team. This is an excellent opportunity for a caring and resilient graduate to make a meaningful impact on the educational and personal development of pupils with additional needs.

The successful SEND LSA will play a key role in supporting pupils with complex learning needs, communication difficulties, autism and emotional or behavioural needs. As a SEND LSA, you will work closely with class teachers and the wider SEND team to provide tailored support, helping pupils access learning, develop their independence and build positive relationships within the school environment.

This SEND LSA position offers a rewarding and varied role, with opportunities to provide 1:1 and small-group support, contribute to individual support plans, and help pupils develop their confidence and ability to engage with education.

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.
