About Halwin Primary School
Halwin School is located in the village of Porkellis, northeast of Helston, in the heart of the old Wendron Mining District.
As a small rural school, we pride ourselves on our kind and caring atmosphere and our close partnership with parents and the local community. We make the most of our location and outdoor space for children to play, explore, and learn.
Our Ethos
Halwin is a happy school committed to helping children do and be their very best. We believe that happy children are the most successful learners. It is a place where children know they matter, they believe in themselves, and try to be the best that they can be.
Role Description
We are seeking to appoint an enthusiastic, hardworking, and committed individual to support the delivery of provision as set out in the children’s Individual Education Plans and Educational Health Care Plans. The role is to support the ethos of our Schools.
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.
