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.
Working hours, term-time only - £14.24 per hour
- Mon and Thurs 8.30am - 4.30pm
- Tues and Fri 8.30am - 4pm
- Wednesday 8.30am - 5pm
The successful Teaching Assistant will be required to support pupils across the school in small groups and on a 1:1 basis. Although experience of working in an SEN school would be an advantage, this is not essential. What is needed is an understanding, empathetic and calm Teaching Assistant who is able to build positive relationships and be able to support the teacher in meeting the individual needs of the students, in line with their individualised learning and care plans. These plans allow each student to have access to a challenging, broad, relevant and differentiated curriculum that is designed to be Asperger Syndrome friendly.
