Department for Education interview - communications competency questions?

Hi all, could really use some help ahead of an interview for the DfE next week.

On the application, 6 competencies were listed. 2 of them (collaborating & partnering and delivering at pace) had short descriptions as well as a link to a PDF that went into more detail - great.

However the other 4 didn't have descriptions or any further reference material. They were listed as "Communications - Insight / Ideas / Implementation / Impact (core)".

After a bit of googling I managed to find a document called "Government Communications - Professional Competency Framework" which I used to structure my answers. I scored 4s and 5s, with a 4 overall. So I'd like to get that score up in my interview if I can!

Problem is I can't find any other mention of these competencies anywhere, or any example questions that might come up.

Has anyone had any experience with these competencies in interviews? Would massively appreciate any help or advice you can give. Thanks.
