It was hard work. All of this before I even get on to the course! I can't discuss the activities I took part in, as we had to sign confidentiality forms.
There's not a lot you can do to prepare, but it might be worth doing these things:
- Read through your application forms one last time.
- Meet with your sponsor to discuss what they said about you in their telephone conversation (just for support and inspiration).
- Look again at the definitions of the NPQH competencies.
- Think about your senior leadership role - forget about your work with children. On they day they are only interested in how you lead people.
- Ensure you are familiar with EYFS profiles, RaiseOnline, Ofsted reports.
- Take a look through your school's development plan.
If you haven't had your day yet - good luck. The assessors were friendly and put you at ease as much as possible. There'll be about 8 of you on the day but you are assessed individually. The assessors told us to 'enjoy it'. Do your best and good luck!
