Primary Teaching Interview Question:

Explain me what can you offer the school?

Again this can take various guises but can be answered in similar ways. It is basically asking you to sell yourself and tell them what you are good at so they can see if you would help the school move on. Maybe they are looking for a music teacher as they lack that sort of expertise, maybe they are looking for a science teacher to lead the school forward in that area.

Other questions they may ask are:

☛ Would you be interested in doing an after school club?
☛ Would you be available to go on residential with year 5 or 6?
☛ Can you outline your strengths?
☛ What weaknesses do you have? (This should be turned upside down and make it into a strength because you have combated it and come out successful at the other end.)

Sell yourself here and if you tick the boxes then you are well on the way to earning yourself that new job you want.
