Hertfordshire Primary Education 2013

Hi, is there anyone out there still waiting for a reply to their application for the upper primary BEd course at Herfordshire?

I applied in January and am starting to wonder as I've already been to other interviews and have received offers. Herts is my first choice so the waiting is really frustrating. :smile:

for any other applicants that have interviewed for Primary Education already, how did you find the interview?

Get in contact with them. I have seen on other threads that people have got offers.

Best of luck to you :smile:

Hi there,

As you can imagine, we are working through a very high volume of applications so don't be too alarmed if we have replied to others and not you.

If you would like to chase it up however, you can try and get through to our admissions team on 01707 284800 who will be able to give you a more detailed overview of what stage your application is at.

Hope to see you here in September :smile:

thanks,

Hi Sadiejanex, congratulations on your offer! :smile:

was wondering if you would be able to share the grades you have. I have an interview on the 3rd of May and my grades aren't too good :s-smilie:

Aw thank you :smile:

well I'm currently in my last year of a levels now so I've still got to take the exams. But my offer is conditional to me getting 3 Bs...which I'm really worried about because I don't think that's gonna happen :frown:

but fingers crossed!
What grades did you get? Because they wouldn't of asked you for an interview if they Were not happy with your grades so you'll be fine :smile:

Well done, is it your firm choice? I have heard back and have an interview on the 3rd May. Fingers crossed it goes well as it's my preferred choice.

How did you find the interview? Any tips you could give me would be appreciated. Did you sit a maths/english test?

Thanks,

Mari :-)

Yeah it's my firm choice :smile:

really want to go to Hertfordshire so just need to get the grades now!

Aw good luck!!
You have a written task where they give you a question mine was what makes effective learning, which wasn't to bad :smile:

Then they give you a story book where you have to look through the book and you have to give a presentation in a group (its only to a couple of people so don't worry) and you talk about what lessons you can do revolving around that subject
Then it's the individual interview which really isn't bad they make you really relaxed and are very friendly :smile:

Hope this helps :smile:

Not yet. I think it takes a couple of weeks for the uni to update ucas. How did your interview go? :-) I thought it was a good day, everyone was really friendly and I had a good group.

My schools given us the opportunity to take general studies because they say if we were unfortunate enough not to get the grades it could give us the extra points we need.
But does anyway know if Hertfordshire accepts general studies? Because some universities won't accept it
