I have, two weeks exactly to get back to me.
Thanks for the helpful tips! I'm nervous about the time too - whether they're going to begrudge me reading the whole book! It's only a short storybook, 'Voices in the Park' if you're curious, but still wondering if they want to hear me read all of it or just a portion!
I was going to pose questions to the audience as I'm reading it, much as if I was in front of a class of children and doing it with them. Did other people do this sort of thing?
I feel like just standing at the front and saying how I'd use it in Literacy isn't enough/won't impress them! This is what's making me panic, haha!
What was the interview questions like too? You're doing the english specialism right?

I'm not sure what that book is but I read the whole of a Mog book by Judith Kerr if they're a similar size?
That sounds good what you're going to do! You should do that
also I'm not sure what it will be like but in mine we didn't have to stand at the front and read, we could sit where we were and read but it's up to you what you want to do Nope I'm art! But they asked me the general questions like at other interviews but I imagine they'll ask you what your favourite books/authors are, what you're reading and stuff

Hello, congratulations on your offer! Is it only 300 points? Just asking because everyone else I've spoken to has been given 340 (including me), just wondered if there was a reason why or anything

Yep, 300 points
I was actually really surprised but I think it's because I study german at a2 and they seemed really interested in that...I also did two weeks work experience in Munich which they seemed to like.Congrats btw! Maybe we'll both end up there in september

They didn't even offer me an interview for Primary Education at Nottingham Trent, just appeared on my UCAS track as unsucessful
but then emailed me & gave me an unconditional offer on some random course that I didn't/wouldn't apply for. I didn't have an interview for Childhood Studies either, I just got an unconditional offer. I've applied for Primary Education and Childhood Studies at Derby and then Primary Education at Sheffield I would have loved to have done Primary Education at Nottingham Trent but happy with Childhood studies. xOriginal post by Alice:)

I included how I'd use the object in a classroom, things I'd have to take into consideration in certain schools and the age group I'd use it with just relax, my interviewers were lovely and they really put you at ease xPosted from TSR Mobile
