First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Peel District School Board.
Teacher
The interview lasted 30 minutes and included questions about handling student misbehavior, math and literacy programming, and equity. It was important to give many examples of how you foster a welcoming classroom environment.
- Can you describe how you would handle a student who is misbehaving, discuss math/literacy programming, and address equity?
- Please provide examples of your work in creating a welcoming classroom atmosphere.
Teacher
This involved a series of five questions about my past teaching work, my ideas on teaching, my best approaches (Transformational Practises), how I use resources (Ministry and Peel Board ones, docs, tools), my understanding of ministry expectations (Ontario curriculum), and my planning abilities (long-range, short-term, smart goals, teaching-learning critical pathway), plus teamwork skills. I also had time to ask the admin about their expectations, school routines, community needs, staff dynamics, and school vision. Bringing samples of work and proof of productivity would be good. A professional portfolio might not be shown but it's wise to have it ready. More artifacts to show and discuss.
- What are your career aspirations for the next five years?
Teacher
So there were 3 administrators (VPs) who asked me some questions. They gave me one question beforehand to think about and write down an answer for, and then they handed me a piece of paper with about five or six more questions that I had to answer out loud.
- Can you discuss Policy 14?
- Regarding Policy 14, please provide your insights.
- Tell me your thoughts on Policy 14.
