Oxford Brookes Primary PGCE

Hi everyone (anyone??!) :woo:

I've applied for Oxford Brookes Primary PGCE and have got an interview on Thursday. I just wondered if anyone has already been through this interview day and had any tips? Or anyone who has a similar interview coming up?! I am slightly worried about the 5 minute teaching task and how thoroughly we need to know the paper we have been given?

If anyone could help me I would be eternally grateful!

Thank you so so much!

hey guys, sorry only just saw this thread lol i could have given you some tips! I had my interview there on 9th Nov, still waiting to hear back. They said 2-3 weeks, and it will be 2 weeks 2moro, so hopefully might hear this week. How did your interviews go? Did you do a maths test? How long did they tell u to have to wait to get the decision? xx

I am worried about the written task- is it all about reflective teaching?? and evaluating our own tasks?

Any help would be greatly appreciated :smile:

Hey madgirlie :smile:

Well, the written task we did was basically just evaluating our teaching tasks, had 20 mins to do it! So dont worry too much :smile:

It was all quite fun actually :smile:

Hello Everyone,

I submitted my GTTR application on 22nd November 2010 and it still says it is under consideration. My first choice is Brookes and I was just wondering how soon after you submitted your form that you heard back?

Best Wishes,

Anna
