I have just received an email inviting me for an interview with Explore Learning. The position is for an Assistant Director, I'm in my last year at York Uni - so the position is to start next year.
Was just wondering if there is anyone who has had an interview with them, who could give me any tips, as I am really keen for this position!
Also I wasn't sure what to wear. I was thinking a suit, like pencil skirt, shirt and blazer but I think they may observe you with children so this might not be the right option?
Any interview help or info regarding the company would be so much appreciated!!

If they have not informed you of the format for the interview then I would give them a ring to ask how formal it will be and whether or not it will involve dealing with children during the actual interview; some PGCE interviews do this. You have to remember that Explore Learning is primarily done after school and most staff seem younger than most teachers so I assume they would like to operate a more relaxed environment to get the best out of the children. Going in there with a stiff suit will make you stand out like a sore thumb in my opinion; go for some smart-casual if at all possible.

I'm also in my last year at York Uni applying for AD at Explore Learning! I found out today that I've got through to the telephone interview stage .
Did you have any luck with your application? x
Oh wow well done you! I didn't have the telephone interview, they just contacted me after my application to go to the face to face interview, which isn't until December! There is quite a lot of stages in the interview, role play, children and questions on marketing. I really need to start preparing!
Hi guys, I have an interview with Explore Learning next week! How did your interview go? Best of luck to both o you, was just wondering if you had any advice? xx
