PGDE Secondary 2024 Aberdeen University

Hi, has anyone had their interview with Aberdeen University yet? Other than the presentation, any advice on what kind of questions they might ask? Thanks!

I have mine in a couple of weeks so I imagine they'll be all around the same time.

Re questions. I imagine they'll be some related to the presentation on your chosen question you want to address but perhaps the ones you don't. For example, what are the biggest challenges of said subject you want to teach, health and wellbeing implementation and how to promote attainment in schools. (I'm doing my presentation on health and wellbeing implementation, thought I'd challenge myself!)

Other standard questions I expect will be asked are the obvious 'Why do you want to be a teacher' and if you have any prior experience working in schools or with young people.
