Pgde scotland 25/26

Thanks for the info 🙂 couple questions I had: how was the group task? Obviously not expecting you to disclose the exact details, but interested in anything can share. Also, in regards to subject specific knowledge, did they actually test your knowledge of biology specifically (as opposed to general teaching-related questions)? You said to prepare for topics we find interesting, so is it best just to prepare some stuff that we're interested in, or to be prepared for potential questions around any of the core areas of the curriculum (i.e. I'm applying for maths, should I just recap my main interests such as linear algebra, or should I be prepared for questions on calculus, trig, algebra, etc.)? Thanks so much 😊

Hello! I had an interview for the PGDE secondary teaching for modern studies a few days ago at Strathclyde university

I was there today how did you did you find it

Has anyone else got their offer from uni of Edinburgh, I got mine yesterday?!

I applied to Edinburgh, Glasgow, Strathclyde and Dundee for Primary! I got an interview offer from Dundee but nothing from the others yet. To be fair, I submitted my application on the 27th of Jan. Anyone else had an interview at Dundee and if so how did it go?

I am in the exact same position, applied on exactly that date and have an interview for Dundee. It was my 5th choice though so praying for some news from Edinburgh or Strathclyde this week.

Hi there,
I can't remember the questions word for word, but roughly as follows:
1. What things did you take away from the introduction to the course video (sent via the email)?
2. What is the role of the teacher outside of teaching the curriculum?
3. What experience/ skills do you have that you can bring to the primary education setting.
4. What social, economic and technological factors do children face and how can we support them?
5. Scenario based question.
I spoke a lot and had to be cut off at times as it is such a quick interview! My interviewer was lovely, but I was soooo nervous. I got an offer one week after my interview.

Hi! I have an interview for Strathclyde for Modern Studies too, could you please share any advice? They said a five minute presentation, are we allowed notes, do we prepare a powerpoint? Any tips on questions? Thanks so much!

Also interested in anyone else's experience interviewing for Strathclyde. Happy to share my experience interviewing at Glasgow (offer received) if interested

Got an offer from Strathclyde which is very exciting, at the moment this is my top choice. I'm hoping to hear back from Glasgow soon, but I've not heard anything from them and am getting worried!

Also interested in anyone else's experience interviewing for Strathclyde. Happy to share my experience interviewing at Glasgow (offer received) if interested

Hey, Congrats on your offer for Glasgow!
I had an interview with Strathclyde last week and received my offer today! So exciting! My interview was great, pretty standard questions (someone has posted them before on here - page 2, reply 34), and the interviewer was so lovely!
What was your experience like with Glasgow?

Hi, just wondering if many folks have received a request for interview from Edinburgh University (Primary)?
Still waiting..........
