LAPS only work with current and former professional/elite athletes. If you do not have a professional sports background, your application will be rejected.

We are working with a specialist education recruitment agency supporting Primary, Secondary and SEND schools across Greater Manchester. They provide high-quality teaching and support staff on a day-to-day, short-term, long-term and permanent basis.

They are committed to building a culture centred around excellence. They invest heavily in their people, to create a culture of ambition, accountability and growth that directly improves the service they deliver to our schools and candidates.

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.
