This webinar offers an insightful and dynamic look into a significant part of the senior school admissions process: the interview.
Interviews and the information they provide schools are even more decisive in the schools’ application process. In recent years many children have had hugely interrupted preparation for forthcoming exams and therefore the onus placed on interviews will be even more pivotal in securing a place for a child’s next school. Brodie will talk about the importance of instilling self-belief and providing the foundations for performing with confidence at interview by focusing on the following:
• The significance of the interview
• How to support your child with interviews
• Preparation for different interview scenarios
• Practical tips to help the whole family
• Dealing with anxiety of the interview
The webinar lasts 30 minutes and will contain a vast array of tips and suggestions on how to help your child. The last 10 minutes of the Livestream consists of a Q&A section with questions from parents who attended the session.
