Every child deserves the opportunity to thrive, and you could play a key role in making that happen.

This is a fantastic opportunity to make a real and lasting impact in a role where no two days are the same. As a SEND Teaching Assistant, you'll support incredible young people with a range of additional needs, including Autism, ADHD, Moderate to Severe Learning Difficulties, Sensory Impairments and Physical Disabilities.

Working closely with experienced teachers and a dedicated support team, you'll help create a positive, engaging, and inclusive learning environment where every child feels valued and supported. Whether you're providing one-to-one support, working with small groups, or helping students develop essential life skills, you'll see the difference your support makes every single day.
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.
