    hey, yeah I had my interview for leeds met primary ed in December and now received an offer. I thought the interview was quite relaxed really and asked us question relating to our own experiences so the questions wasn't to hard. Anything in particular you are nervous for?

    I'm slightly concerned about the 'small item' thing! In the letter it says it's just meant to help you answer the first question but what kind of thing are they expecting us to bring? Hmmm..

    I had an interview at Leeds Met & took a packet of seeds, and talked about how they could be used in different areas of learning. Linked them to a 'Jack & the beanstalk' theme.

    Good Luck

    Hey I had an interview at Leeds Met last week and still not heard anything back yet. Just wondering how long it took other people to find out whether they'd been accepted or not?

    Thanks
