Hi!
I have created this website in order to help others who are about to complete their DEC interview!
First of all, congratulations on getting this far!
I am primary education trained but as far as i know the interviews are similar in structure and questions across all teaching disciplines. The interview itself is nothing to worry about, it is a meeting with a teaching professional who wants to know about you and your experiences.
Also, Remember to dress like a professional (they do have to tick a box about your appearance). Nothing over the top but conservative and professional as you would wear on prac.
I was given very high accolades for my supporting statement (quote: if not the, then one of the best i have ever seen) but PLEASE do not feel it is okay to copy mine as you will get caught. This supporting statement is attached to your permanent file so if it is the same as someone else's you will no doubt be caught and probably done for some sort of copyright. Remember it is a personal response so there is no wrong answer.
Feel free to ask me any questions!
Good Luck with your future teacher careers!
Lauren.
