University of Glasgow interview

Hey, I just had my Glasgow (main campus) interview today. Have you applied for Primary education (main campus) or Dumfries campus?

Hiya I just received an interview for Glasgow (main campus) how did it go? What questions did they ask and was there a written task? X

Hey, it went really well! I had two interviewers and they were so lovely, it was quite informal so I didn't feel as nervous as I thought I would. It started with me answering the question on religion (the one that we got sent in the email). Then they asked me about what I have done to prepare for teaching?? I honestly can't remember but it was something about my skills. The third one was about teamwork - what skills are important for teamwork to work? I said communication, listening etc. The last one was about current study/work so I spoke about what I study at school and what I do out of school to prepare me with teaching. The written task was cancelled so I didn't have to do that. Honestly, it went by really quickly and the interviewers were lovely.

Thank you! That’s really helpful info and that’s a relieve about the written task, best of luck

Hey, I have another interview for Primary Education and in the email they said there would be questions on current educational trends. Anyone know what are the current trends are for education? I was thinking it would be online learning but idk what else there is.
