I’d appreciate that! Feels like there isn’t much info regarding what they’re looking for from the storytelling part. Seems to differ from post to post! Good luck!

Shoot only seeing this now, sorry! I didn’t think it had went great at the time because I forgot a line towards the end and had to be prompted, recovered okay though, I’d say it was down to nerves as I had been panicking so much about it, heard last week that I had got through to the interview stage though so they must’ve seen some potential! How did you get on?

No there are no residentials for the primary course, but there is for the secondary.

On your first day of the course you will complete regiatration in the morning, get your student card etc. and in the afternoon you will go and meet your tutors and class. The next day you are straight into intense teaching!

I'm currently a student on the course (7 weeka to go thank god!!!!) If you have ANY questions about the course please do not hesitate to ask.

Trust me when I say this year is going to be the hardest year of your life and I am not exaggerating. You have to make so many sacrifices for this course - the PGCE comes first! The workload is intense and it never eases up, even over Easter, I am still flat put with work. You just have to keep your head down and keep powering on!

Hi I’ve applied for the course this year and got through to the second stage! My interview is next week! Was just wondering if you have any tips for the math exam/ the formal interview!

Really want to get in this year!

It wasn't too bad. I just keep thinking oh I should have said this, torturing myself. It is hard to know how you've done.The exam was alright, few things I haven't done in years mind you. What about you?

Exactly...I was told only 20% of those who did the storytelling got through to the interview stage so we’ve done well😂
