Has anyone else not got the email? I have registered my interest again and not heard anything. Also did it on another email address and not heard anything. I'm worried I'm missing it.. is it coming from a random email address???

Mine was in my junk! I’m convinced it’s not legit now lol

I applied two years ago but didnt get an interview. Hoping for one this year. Last year the deadline was May and i heard back in June. It looks like the deadline is March this year so might hear in April unless they do some filtering straight away

Hi, I'm thinking of applying. I have a degree in adult nursing, I graduated 5 years ago. What sort of experience do you need? I work in Cardiac Intensive Care with adults, I have a meeting with a children's charity for children who are disadvantaged, in care and are under child protection/safeguarding next week but this will mean I don't have 6 months experience on the date of applying....but will have by the time I would start the course. Do I need more experience/ should already have experience before applying? Thanks

Those who have applied/are applying, what experience have you got? Mine is in a pastoral/safeguarding role in a school, and some voluntary (although not a lot!)

Don't quote me but I would say you already need the experience because the questions on the application are basically 'describe your time working with a vulnerable child/young person or adult.' You technically write a mini case study. So if you have 6 months of working with vulnerable adults, and you can write about one in particular, you should be ok? There are 2 questions on that.

Does anyone know what happens after you've submitted your application? What is the process? Is there a video interview or anything or straight to assessment centre? Thanks in advanced x
