    Hi!

    I have a conditional place at Cumbria for this exact course and I had my interview in January.

    It began with a short essay, in exam-ish conditions, based on an article about Reflective learning.
    Then we got divided up and did our group interview which was based on a discussion about effective ways to run a classroom.
    Then we did our presentation which we prepared beforehand.
    Then there was the formal interview where we got asked 5 questions.
    And that's it
    Haha...Good luck!!
