Preperation for interviews
Worcester University interview
National curiculum 2014 check for design technology.
complete the task that relates to subject specialism
impressionism and water
research into basic impressionism and approaches in school materials etc.
discuss the issues faced later on??
All applications to UCAS have been sent and received. References sent etc.
Interview dates have been confirmed for two of three choices. Primary entry has been declined, but this hasn't or wont cause issues as I changed my mind about primary teaching.
In the mean time Bianka (Deputy Redhill) and I have been emailing regarding the course appropriateness, as the school led teacher training is governed by worcester Uni and a D.T course. The interview information states that the course is in food and textiles, two subjects I know very little about.
I have emailed the University regarding this issue to see if i am eligible for a place, or not before I go through an interview process.
After hearing back from the university and speaking with several members of staff, we have come to the conclusion that I am not eligible for the course. Bianka now understands the issues, having established that I suit mostly three dimensional design and Art, rather than home economics. She is now attempting to set up a SCITT route into the school for me.
I finally heard back from Bianka who has been unsuccessful in setting up a direct training route at Redhill. She has, instead arranged for me to speak with and interview with Haybridge high school in Hagley.
Haybridge School alliance SCITT runs teacher training across a variety of subjects, I am interested in Art or Design technology. However I feel that having a degree in Art, alongside teacher training n DT might make it easier for me to be flexible and teach across the board later down the line, also leaving more room for employment as DT teachers are in higher demand with DT being a core subject. Bursaries are offered to graduates with a 2:1 or higher who want to train to teach in DT also.
