What happens once I have applied?

Applications are processed initially by Coventry and Central Warwickshire Teaching School Hub and the University of Warwick.

Please check your emails regularly, as invitations for interview will be sent via email.

• Interviews are usually held at the school which you have applied to.
• Typically, the selection process will last approximately half a day, during which you will attend an interview, conduct a short teaching task, complete a brief numeracy and literacy test, meet members of the department or school team you will be working with and tour the school. For Secondary applicants there may also be a discussion or task relating to your chosen subject.
• If you are successful at interview, you will be informed by APPLY and by us directly.
