I prepared this document whilst job hunting for my first teaching position in a primary school. The document covers 21 different interview questions and their respective answers.
This might be especially useful of NQTs/ECTs, as you might be looking for an idea of the type of questions to expect and the types of answers they are looking for.
This should not be used as a script as you will need to also use your own examples from your experience in schools. The document is aimed at giving you a starting point for your own ideas and schools change their questions all the time, so it can’t be guaranteed that all questions are on this list, but the main themes may remain the same.
The document is aimed at primary school teaching interviews in the UK, so if you’re in secondary or looking at international schools, I’m not sure how useful it’ll be. This resource was originally first created before Covid, so please bare in mind there may be questions about how the pandemic has affected education.
