Primary Education Interview - Nottingham Trent

I have an interview/presentation on 4th March and I need to take in an object that reflects me as a learner but have no idea what to take or what will make me stand out. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated

I had my interview there last week and some objects people took varied from mirrors, diaries, coloured pencils, medals/trophies and spider diagram charts. It doesn't really matter what you take so long as you explain it well enough :smile: I took a mirror and I got a place woo!

Hi, how was the overall interview day? Any more suggestions for an object?:smile:
For my interview I took in a pair of headphones, I said I was an auditory learner and that when I revise I like to listen to music and sometimes I fit the music to songs to things I need to learn! I was then able to link this to my work exp. Some great objects I witnessed were; coloured felt-tips, these people then went on to explain how they are a mixture of learners, others took onions etc, even a sponge and said they soak up information! I too got a place for primary ed!

Hi, I have an interview on the 4th too. What was the English like- comprehension, grammar, spelling test etc?
We were given an article to read and we had to answer questions on it, it was about getting a class some pets and the advantages, disadvantages of this etc..

#I am so glad I have seen your answer. You have helped me so much, my interview is next week and I couldn't think of anything to take, was over-thinking things too much I think.

Hello, i'm considering applying for Primary education in Sept. I'm kind off planning ahead. What do you do during the interview? Is it one-to-one? Do you do powerpoints?
