Can you be the difference in a student's day?
Every child deserves a champion: someone who never gives up on them and understands that progress looks different for everyone. We are seeking a dedicated and compassionate SEND Teaching Assistant to support students with a range of additional needs, including ASD, ADHD, and SEMH.
This isn’t just about helping with schoolwork; it’s about building confidence, managing anxieties, and celebrating the small wins that make a massive impact on a young person’s life.
What’s in it for you?
Rewarding Work
- Experience the genuine joy of seeing a student overcome a barrier because of your support.
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Weekly Pay
- Competitive rates paid every Friday via Randstad.
Expert Training
- Access to specialised CPD, including Team:Teach, Autism Awareness, and de-escalation strategies.
Consistency
- Most of our SEND roles are long-term, providing you with a stable routine and the chance to build real bonds.
