The Governors are seeking to appoint a HLTA/Cover Supervisor to cover for the EYFS class teacher for management time and PPA. The hours are split across 2 and a half days with marking and preparation time included. Days are negotiable. More hours could also be available, including working in the KS1 classes, on a relief basis to cover absences or additional cover as necessary.
The position would suit an ECT looking for additional experience, or an existing HLTA.

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.
