With the current closure of school sites across the country, shortlisted candidates will have an initial interview with the Head of Department and member of SMT. A further interview will be arranged for those candidates proceeding to the final stage. All interviews are likely to be remote and candidates will be asked to prepare and talk through lesson plans in place of a practical observation.
