5 Big Pastoral Questions and their Answers: Interview Prep - Head of Year Development - Set 1

£3.00
(1)
This PDF includes 5 key questions asked on pastoral interview and their answers in detail. These are intended to support existing or new heads of year as well as being potential questions you may get asked on interview. In this set I answer: how do you deal with angry parent? how do you support a student struggling to fit in? how do you lead a team? how do you deal with poor student behaviour? do you monitor student progress? These answers are suggestions – they are not necessarily definitive. If preparing for interview, I always recommend you tailor your questions to the school you’re applying to and ensure you are giving specific examples of what you’re able to offer. If in post, always remember the policies of your school.

Head of Year Pastoral Progress Data Analysis Task - In Tray Interview Practice - Year Group Set 1

£4.00
(1)
Head of Year Pastoral Progress Data Analysis Task - In Tray Interview Practice - Year Group Set 1 This resource is my first set of practice data task for Heads of Year/Pastoral Leaders preparing for interview. The resource provides a fictionalised set of progress/attainment data from a fictionalised year group, space to analyse the data yourself and to come up with your three priorities. In addition, I provide the three priorities I would identify in timed conditions as well as the ‘answers’ I would provide in an interview circumstance. This resource handles whole year group data. This is the great way to practice your data analysis skills for interview from a pastoral perspective. This resource goes well with my other resources on raising attainment and analysing data as a pastoral leader. You can find a 2nd example of this in tray here: /teaching-resource/resource-12732369. This is another set of data to provide a 2nd chance to practice prior to interview.

SENCo SENDCo Interview Questions and Answers - Interview Support - Interview Preparation - Set 1

£4.00
(0)
In this resource, we explore 10 questions you might be asked on a SENCo interview and 10 detailed possible answers. This resource is 7 pages long. This is a complimentary resource to the set 1 and set 2 SENCo questions (these are with no answers) listed in my shop. It can be used in conjunction or on its own to help you prepare for interview. We answer the questions: Why are you interested in the role of SENCo? What skills could you bring to our SENCO role? Give us a summary of your understanding of the Code of Practice: How would you use data to inform this role? How would you demonstrate value for money in this role? Tell us about your ability to work under pressure. A parent arrives in reception angry about the support their child with SEN has received. What do you do? How would you time manage as a SENCo? A student with ADHD is struggling in their English lessons – they are not making expected progress and the teacher is challenged by their behaviour - how would you support the teacher to help the student? Why have you chosen this school to apply to as SENCo? Please note: whilst the questions are detailed and thorough, they are NOT a definitive list, and the answers are not exhaustive. You may want to select parts of the answers which apply best to your knowledge. You should also add to your answers using experiences of your own and include your learning from these experiences that you would take into the new role. You should never use generic answers in an interview setting. Always link your answers with what you know about the school and their priorities.

SENDCo SENCo SEN Special Education Support | Example Supporting Application Covering Letter

£5.00

IMPROVED FOR 2024 This resource is an example application letter for the position of SENCo in a secondary school. This letter should be developed by including your own examples of where you have completed the points referenced and the impact of that work as well as your learning from the work you have completed – using the spaces to help you do this. This letter is for guidance only and should not be used exclusively to apply for a SENCo role but instead used to support the writing of your own letter. Letters should always be tailored to the school you are applying to and your own experiences. This example includes more ideas than you may wish to include in your own letter and is intended to highlight a variety of content you could use. This template is over 5 pages long and full of ideas which you could use or remove. This resource is aimed a secondary school SENCo role, but could provide ideas for other stages of education also. Please note: covering letters should not exceed 2 pages in length. I never recommend sending blanket templates for prospective roles and always advise an application is tailored to you and the school.
