    Yes I can!! I just had one myself!
    I was asked...
    1. what is the difference between leadership & management.
    2. How would I manage staff who are already colleagues & friends.
    3. How I would effectively lead a team of co-ordinators, as a teaching and learning team leader.
    4. How I would encourage the voice of the children to be heard.
    5. A question about personalised learning ( The job description involves Senco role)
    6. A question about the school action plan, so make sure you know what it involves!
    All in all I was asked about 10 questions but have a mental block at the mo!
    By the way... I got the job!
