Interview
First, there was a basic numeracy and literacy test. The numeracy test included simple fractions and decimals questions etc. The literacy test included circling the write spelling of words that are commonly misspelt like address and adding correct punctuation to a piece of text. On the same day I had an interview with a panel of three people including the assistant head and lead SENCO. They let me know the result the next day.
