Preparing for UK Schools’ Interviews

Whilst it is advisable to prepare for an interview, there are many ways in which a child can prepare. The schools want to get to know your child and their personality and what they can bring to the school, however it is quite obvious to schools when a child has had a lot of coaching and is trying to remember learned answers. It is far better for them to be natural and share their genuine passions. Any coaching should be to overcome fears of talking to an adult, and giving their opinion on questions, rather than learning prescribed answers.
