Psychology Graduates Wanted
Kickstart Your Career in Education
Cardiff | £460 per week | Easter & September Starts

If you've recently graduated in Psychology and are looking for a role where you can genuinely apply what you've learned, this could be exactly what you're looking for.

We're partnering with schools across Cardiff to support students who need additional guidance in the classroom. These are opportunities to gain hands-on experience working with young people, particularly those who benefit from structured, consistent, and empathetic support.

What You'll Be Doing

This isn't a typical classroom role. You'll be working closely with pupils who may:

  • Feel anxious or overwhelmed in school environments

  • Need help regulating emotions or behaviour

  • Require additional support to stay engaged in learning

You'll play a key role in building trust, encouraging progress, and helping students feel more confident in their day-to-day school life.

You'll also gain exposure to a range of needs, including:

  • ADHD

  • Autism Spectrum Condition (ASC)

  • Social, emotional and behavioural challenges

  • Wider neurodiverse profiles

Why This Experience Matters

For Psychology graduates, this is a strong first step into careers such as:

  • Educational or Clinical Psychology

  • Child and Adolescent Mental Health

  • Teaching or SEN support

  • Youth and community work

It's practical, meaningful experience that will set you apart.

What Schools Are Looking For
  • A Psychology degree (or similar)

  • A calm, patient and understanding approach

  • Strong communication and listening skills

  • The ability to build positive relationships with young people

  • A genuine interest in behaviour, learning, and development

What You Can Expect
  • Weekly pay of £460

  • Roles available across Cardiff

  • Start dates available after Easter and September

  • Ongoing support throughout your placement

  • Opportunities to move into longer-term or permanent roles

Working with Educators First

We focus on more than just filling roles. Our approach is centred around finding the right environment for you , not just any placement.

We take the time to understand what you want from your experience and work closely with our partner schools to match you accordingly, giving you the best possible platform to grow within education.

Important Information

All applicants will need an Enhanced DBS . If you don't currently have one, we'll support you through the application process before placement.

If you're looking for a role where you can develop real-world skills, build experience, and make a genuine difference, apply now to secure your place for Easter or September Psychology Graduates Wanted
