SEND Teaching Assistant
SEND Teaching Assistant - Primary and Specialist Schools
Wigan, Leigh and Atherton
Full-time & part-time opportunities
Do you have a real strength for supporting children who need that little bit more?
We're recruiting experienced Teaching Assistants to support pupils with additional needs in primary schools across Wigan.
We're particularly interested in people who have experience supporting children with needs such as ASC, ADHD, communication difficulties, SEMH or challenging behaviour, whether that's within a mainstream classroom, specialist provision or through 1:1 support.
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.
